Ive got a mate with a well looked after but completely stock corona. not sure what model. its running on 2 cyl - he's changed the plugs, dizzy cap, leads etc. idles rough, is down on power and if you pull the leads off 3 & 4 it makes no difference to the idle.
It is getting spark to the plugs (tested by earthing to the rocker cover) and has equal compression to all cylinders so its not a head gasket or valve.
