Ignition systems are in two pairs; 1 and 4, 2 and 3. Since it's 3 and 4 that don't work, I can rule out an ignition fault, unless it's a duff spark plug or HT cap. It's highly unlikely that both plugs/HT caps fail at the same time, which is why I think it's fuel related.

1. Ain't got a known good one.
2. It seems to spark OK
3. Rechecking the connections isn't a bad idea.
