Got the motor running, timing is right, everything is right

but cylinder #2 is not working, you can unplug the spark plug and it doesnt change the motor idle at all, while the other 3 just about kills the motor. Its sparking, has fuel.


Also, when the motor cuts off, it wants to stay on even after ignition, and smoke comes out intake..is this a sticky intake valve?

take a realy long screwdriver or dowl or something start the car and check to see if the injecter is clicking... if it is it usualy means its working and your getting fuel... but first check the spark plugs for damage and gaps.
