ok this is what is going on. i have a 94 celica st (7afe) and the #1 cyl. is not firing. Fuel is getting to it, there is compression (250 psi), there is a spark, but when i remove the spark plug and place it in the boot for seeing if there is a spark by grounding it to the block, it fires from the threads!!! i have changed the spark plugs, and i have swapped them with other cylinders. i have swapped wires. then today i jumped the diagnostic port t1 and te1, and a code flashed. the code is continual flashing, what could this cody be, and what is my problem. Please help. thanks

If the spark is going from the threads of the plug then it is taking the easiest ground out. When the plug and wire is in the whole it maybe grounding to the tube. See if you can get the plug to spark like it is supposed to.

if you want to you can use a stethescope to actually hear if the injectors are actually opening or closing

has the motor been sitting long or something
