Why are Cylinders 2 and 3 not working but the spark is okay on 1989 Toyota Corolla coil and distributor with carburetor?

This sounds like your head gasket has blown
between cylinders 2 & 3.
this will cause a compression loss on the affected cylinders.
you need to have a compression test carried out on your engine.
AnotherIf you're CERTAIN that the spark is good and it's timed properly, next I'd check the compression in those two cylinders. It's suspicious to me that the two non-functional cylinders are adjacent.If the engine has overheated any time in the last year you have probably warped the head. A simple compression test will tell the story.

What is wrong with your 350 engine compression is good 155 to 175 new Holley carburetor GM distributor good spark all over but cylinders 1 2 and 6 not working?
You need to go back to the basics: Are the plug wires connected properly? If they're out of sequence (at the distributor) you'll definitely see what you're describing. Have you checked the individual plugs? Are they fouled? Wet? Is there a vacuum leak that's making the affected cylinders a bit too lean? Beyond that, it's just a matter of isolating the problem and attacking it one step at a time. Good luck.
How come a 2002 Toyota Camry is only firing on 1 and 2 cylinder after replacing head gasket?
If you have installed the gasket properly and cylinders 1 and 2 are working. It seems that both coils work or distributor. Make sure that you did not swap spark plug wires for 3 and 4 cylinders.
Van's engine has 2 cylinders not working and want to know how long will egine work?
it is hard to say when it will stop working but if you are not trying to fix it, it can be dangerous because you will have fuel fumes going into a hot exhaust which can explode. Try replacing the plugs and wires if thatdoesn't work try replacing the distributor cap or the coil packs goin to the cylinders. if that doesnt work than you might have piston ring problems you can take it to a mechanic and have him run a compression test on the cylinders.
How does a carburetor work?
A carburetor mixes air and fuel in appropriate proportions. Air and Liquid fuel are the inputs to the carburetor at different points of the carburetor. Due to suction created by the working engine , atmosperic Air is accelerated through the venturi in the carburetor. Accelerating Air sucks Fuel into the venturi at its center from a level regulated liquid fuel pot in the carburetor,due to the venturi action. (Bernoulli's Principle) During the process of sucking the fuel is atomised /becomes a mist , as it enters the venturi. The atomised fuel then evaporates and mixes with the air uniformly. This uniform gaseous mixture of fuel and air is the out put of the carburetor. This gaseous mixture then enters into engine cylinders for combustion.
