I distributor system is pretty simple. If it's not hitting on #1, you mean with a spark plug in the wire and the plug grounded, there's no visible arc at the plug? But there is on 2 and 3?
If that's the case, first swap one of your other wires to #1. If #1 now fires but the other doesn't, it's your wire. If it's still #1, then it's your cap or plug.
Swap your plugs. Id it's still #1, then it's your cap.
I realize you just replaced them, but that's the only possibility unless your rotor is oscillating. (which I can't imagine happening and it not be noticeable) I would imagine everyone's gotten at least one new part that was bad out of the box before. I've had more than I can count. AND there's more bad part than there used to be... even from the dealer.
