Mis-Behaving 4kq : more



As per the instructions of listers, I tested to see if removing the spark
plug wires one by one would cause any difference in my rough-running.

Turns out #2 is a bit shady.  Removing the spark plug wire from the motor
end reveals no change in running smoothness.  Removing any of the others
gives me serious stumbling and even more unhappiness, which I take means
that they are (mostly) running well.

So, do we have a clogged injector here?  I am mostly certain that the plug
was getting spark because I could hear it arcing as I held it up to metal
and I could feel it running through me when I accidentally touched the
metal part of the (otherwise) insulated pliers (doh!).

So, it seems to be either in the plug itself, or in fuel delivery, right?
Again, excuse the ignorance.

A call to my wrench is in order here, I believe.
Any comments appreciated,
Mark
