well the sonoma is running on 7 cylinders. the #5 header primary still has paint on it while all the others are burned off. i ran it the other day and got out and the other primaries were extremely hot and the 5th one was luke warm. im pretty sure that its getting spark so my other two ideas are either bad injector or the rockers are cranked down too far and its not sealing.

can anyone tell me how bad of shape is that cylinder going to be if its been runnign lean for like the past two weeks??

If it was running lean for the past two weeks in that cylinder the paint would be long gone!!!
