engine problems

since my last post, i have changed the plug wires, cap and rotor, and there is still a problem with the truck wanting to miss. i still dont know what it is, and its driving me crazy. i HAVE to get this problem figured out. any suggestion, tip or past experience will help with my delema. im wondering if there was a possibility that the cylinder may not be getting fuel. im not sure, just a possibility. it has a Holley 4 barrel. i just need to get this problem figured out ASAP! if anything else, u can contact me here or at Scolesy8@aim.com

I haven't seen you're last post, bu have you done a compression test? Is it not getting fuel, or no spark????????????? Is the spark plug fouled and smells like raw gasoline???

Does it miss at different engine rpm's. Have you checked your holley out, float levels, air fuel mixture screws, choke working properly?
