first gen b16 into 91 civic standard....no spark on cylinders #2 and #4
just installed a b16 into my 91 civic standard.
starts fine, idles fine, but is bogging heavy under 5000 rpms...so i pull the plugs to look at them and cylinder #2 and #4 are super black...so black that they are getting no spark (i checked with the timing light).
so i clean off the plugs and throw them back in...cylinder #2 and #4 fire correctly for only about 1 minute before they stop firing again because of black buildup on them again.
i replaced the wires, plugs, and distributor and am still having the same problem. timing is dead on. any ideas???????

not throwing any codes
would low compression in these cylinders cause such a problem?
