Default having problems with #2 cylinder please help

im not sure why but cylinder 2 is not working. when i pulled the spark plug wire out it still ran the same. change the wires nothing, spark plug nothing, injector nothing, tested the the harness for #2 injector and still getting a reading 12v i think, compression still good 190, and replace the dizzy during the winter. im stuck on this one! please help or give me some ideas to what may cause this..

u may have a bad injector, just because it has pulse doesn't mean that it has flow, try switching injectors 1 and 2 to see if problem moves to cyc 1

wouldnt be a valve if your comp was 190... sounds like a computer prob, maybe an injector driver(the ECU grounds the injectors to make them spray fuel, having 12 volts means nothing). have you even checked for for spark and fuel in that cyl and not just throwing parts at it? its one of those two things if you have compression.
