#1 Cylinder Problems 3K

[sleepin22]

Hi,

I'm wondering if any of you can help me out. My 3K in the KE20 is running on 3cyl's. The first one is the culprit. I have checked compression(176), checked for inlet manifold leaks, spark, have rotated the plugs and #1 still fails and have also rotated the plug leads with the same result. My next step is to get a new dizzy cap but apart from that I have no idea what else it could be. Can anyone suggest what this could be?

Regards
G.

what did the plug look like when you took it out?
whats the compression on the other cylinders? check your dizzy cap and lead
Ive had a contact fall out of a dizzy cap before

The plug is clean as a whistle. Since its mostly a fresh engine the compression on the other cylinders would be there or there about. I have checked the dizzy cap and lead and changed over leads and plugs like i mentioned above. I am actually getting spark as I have pulled the plug out and tested it.
