Write down the numbers. Make sure the battery is fully charged, distributor connector is unplugged, and throttle is wide open when you do your test. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved. cdwdaddy7 User Apr 24, 2014, 1:57 PM Post #3 of 4 (1496 views) Re: 1988 toyota camry number 3 cylinder not firing Sign In it has 153 lbs of compression, sorry was out of town Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 25, 2014, 12:09 AM Post #4 of 4 (1480 views) Re: 1988 toyota camry number 3 cylinder not firing Sign In Swap that plug with another and see if it works there. How do you know it gets fuel? Is that plug soaked? Too wet with fuel and they can self ground but out of engine might show it works, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
