Guys I'm new to working on engines and really confused. What would the carburator have to do with not getting any spark on that one cylender? I mean none at all. please set me straight! thanks,Brad

Oh... I thought you said you were getting spark on all 4 ? If you are not getting spark it has nothing to do with carburation. Suspect failed coil. Switch with another coil and see if the issue follows. If it does, replace the failed coil. This same thing happened to me last year.
