first i would try to move the plug to another position in the engine. if it stays at #6 i would look at the wire, poss swap it around also. if it still has the same problem, you need to check for fuel, could be a clogged port (2.8 carbed right?) next i would check compression, a valve could be hanging up
good luck

Hello

What about you distributor shaft? It could be out of spec and worn. Just an idea.

I found the problem, it turned out the plug was broke on the inside I guess and would fire when I held it because I was pushing it together, but in the truck it was yanking out, and then it was getting fouled from not fireing. I put one of the old plugs back in and it runs great, I thought the comp. or tfi was going on it again. Thank God I have everything for a duraspark /w gm module. and I am getting a 302 for it pretty soon.

thanks for the sugessions though.
