Cylinder #1 Not Running - Got Spark/Fuel/Timing - Pull Plug Up And Its Perfect?
 
Car is a d16a6 obd0 brand new engine with some internal work done to it

I thought it just sounded choppy at idle but when I drove it yesterday it sounded like a bike

Well just now I pulled the spark plugs one by one and 2-4 almost cause the engine to stall out and die, pulled the #1 plug and nothing happened

BUT

When I was slipping it back in I heard the engine noise grow, clicked it into place and it went back to stutterring

So I pulled it back out a bit, maybe 3/4" and the cylinder starts firing!!!

WTF

So I put in a set of known good magencore wires and it did the same thing, you cna pull it out a bit and the motor sounds mint, sounds perfect, plug it into place and the cylinder stops firing, for 2 sets of wires

WTF would cause this?

I'll post a video in a second
