Check the inside of the distributor cap first. Look for a hairline crack or a carbon track in the area closest to the towers that feed the wires going to the two plugs that won't fire. If you've had a sudden cold spell after warm humid weather, the cap may have moisture on or in it. If the plug wire caps are old, even moisture and dirt on the outside of the cap can spell trouble. Moisture on the outside of spark plugs that have a little dirt on them can sometimes cause them to flash-over on the outside and not fire.

Double-check the plugs. Swap the two that won't fire with the two that will.

If anything looks suspicious in that distributor, replace the cap, rotor, points, and condensor.

If it's running on two now, it's still running on as many as the green ones its age!
