car running on 3 cylinders

[juliemac57@hotmail.com (Julie Macfarlane)]

1) What type of engine and fuel system is this?

** It is not the coil. If you get a spark on the other 3 then it can't be 
the coil.

2)Have you tried sprking the plug with the plug outside the engine? I have 
had a bad wire right from the box.


3) what coolant sensor are you removing? And why?
