I was under the same impression, but that was not the case.

Here, in a nutshell is what I *knew*.
All cyl. have 120 comp., I was getting spark at all cyl. firing order was correct,
new plugs, wires, cap, rotor & points. ALL injectors had good spray.

With all that in mind I was at a loss. After doing a search for "not firing" in
the archives I found someone else had the same problem (2 & 3 not firing) their
problem was solved by checking the trigger points. I did that and found nothing
happening on the 21 side, the side that controls cyls. 2 & 3. 22 controls 1 & 4

With this info I adjusted the trigger points, and now have a smooth running FI
engine, and a little more FI experience.
Don't ask me how it works, I just know tat it does.........
