Only firing on #4

Had the Indy running 2 weeks ago and came to start up again yesterday for it's first drive down our track and it would'nt start. Checked everything through, got spark at each plug, petrol supply etc, but it only fires on number 4 as this is the only exhaust pipe that gets hot.. any idea welcome
Cheers
John

Has it worked previously? Has someone swapped around the spark plug leads?

I would go along with that when I had a Pinto in my Cat if left for more than a couple of weeks the plugs would need cleaning at least and if much longer would need to be replaced.
