I would also replace the plugs with Autolite 295. I had the same issue and that's all I ended up needing.

I agree with BOB I would switch #2 and #3 and see what happens the least it could do is run right. The only other thing I know that could be wrong is you have a bad cap and or rotor. Or if its a used distutor the bushings in it could be bad and it doesn't open the points in those to places. But I would bet its that you have 2 and 3 switched

I'm confused. But the firing order is 1243. The results are the same whether you start from the front or the back, but convention is to start in the front (radiator end). I agree that you may have the wires on 2 & 3 crossed.

It's REAL simple to determine distributor rotation... take the distributor cap off, crank the engine a bit, and OBSERVE which way it turns.

Cylinder numbering is 1234, front (radiator) to back.

Try swapping the spark plug wires from the two cylinders that are NOT firing.
