Hi volks I have had a similarly frustrating experience some time ago - one cyl would stop firing at idle but it wouldn't neccecarliy be the same one every time! Turned out to be ignition related. Check your distributor cap for cracks, check the plug leads for any breaks in the insulation, check the connections between the leads and the dist. cap and plugs. Check the coil (mine was bad) - make sure the primary resistance is good and there are no shorts and check the plugs themselves. Problems like the one you described are ignition related most of the time so make sure yours works properly before tearing into your fuel system.
