IF you have good spark (should be OK with 3&4 firing) the try feeding 1&2 carbs with carb spray while it's running on 3&4. If it's starving for fuel on those two cyl then the engine will imediately pick up when you spray at the carbs throats.
Post back when you know about the plugs,
good luck!

i sprayed carb cleaner at the carb throat's no change in engin.so i took the carb's off again and checked pilot and main jet's no blockage's.sprayed everything with carb cleaner and compressed air put them back on nothing no change.i got spark at the plug,s no blockage's ,what else could it be.
By chance have you tried spraying starting fluid (instead of carb cleaner) into throats of carbs for the missing cylinders? Thinking this might ignite better and if the missing cylinders momentarily fire would indicate something maybe still wrong inside the carbs.
Just a thought.
