    Default Blacktop 20V running on 2 cylinders

    Car - Toyota Sprinter

    motor - Blacktop 20V 4AGE with Adaptronic CAS and individual coilpacks

    use - Track

    problem - Running on 2 cylinders

    occurs/started when - Under 1500rpm

    personal situation (if applicable)-

    I drove the car to work last week and left it park out during the rain. When tried to start it that afternoon it wouldn't start. Managed to get it started at home with a combination or changing the timing and throttle position. It would back fire out of the inlet occasionally while trying to start. However when it was running it would only run on 2 cylinders (1 and 3). After increasing the revs to above 1500rpm it would start running on all 4 again. Checked all the timing marks on the cams and crank as thought the belt might have jump but that seems fine. Remove the coils from 2 and 3 and can see sparks while its cranking. Also tried spraying easy start down the throttle of 2 and 4 while it was only running on two to see if it wasn't getting fuel. Can anyone sugguest something which may be wrong or what to do next?
