Get an eye dropper full of water and drip a couple of drops on the header tube for the cylinder you think is dead while the engine is warm and running; if the cylinder is dead, the water will just sit there, if it is working, it will flash off as steam.

I’ll give it a shot when i get the injectors back in and fire it up again.

any tips on double checking the wiring? I did continuity test on all injector plugs to rule out a short, resistance tested coils and they were all .9ohm. they’re recently new beru packs.
