I have a 1990 johnson gt 100 fuel injected outboard

my top left cylinder won’t fire. I have new plugs and ignition coil.. I get a spark but doesn’t ignite.. I checked the gas line to that cylinder and gas is coming out of the line.. the carb was super clean.. don’t understand why the cylinder won’t fire! I get 105 compression in that cylinder aswell

Oil injected but not fuel injected !!-------Check the reed valves.--------Check the high speed jets found INSIDE the carburetor bowl.----Does spark jump a gap of 7/16" on a test device , yes or no ?

I’m new to this! The gas and oil have there own tanks..
I checked the jets there clean.. I don’t have anything to test the gap for a spark.. but I will check the reed values

Put your gas into a glass, see if it separates out some water.
Also see if your spark plug tips are wet or not. If they are wet see if they light with a lighter. If they do your spark is probably bad
