Electric or vacuum egr valve?

Check the engine vacuum at idle and at 2K rpm and post back readings.
How is the fuel pressure?
Good hot blue spark to all spark plugs?
Any dead cylinders or engine miss?
Can you feel a miss at idle or on the road?
Is the dist shaft lose?
Have you checked the base timing?

Check for which cylinder is missing.Check spark plug and wire to that cylinder to start with.
