It depends on the type of ignition system you have. Some have ignition coils at each spark plug, or coils for each plug away from the plug, or coils for every 2 plugs, or a single coil for all plugs. So the coil could be bad, or perhaps simpler the spark plug wire could be bad, or a bad spark plug. If you have a distributor it could be the cap or the signal rotor. There are other possibilities including the Electronic Control Unit, and electromagnetic interference (not likely).

1999 Plymouth breeze got spark to two cylinders but not the other two you have replaced the pcm and the same thing any answers?
If your 1999 Plymouth Breeze is getting spark to only two cylinders, the issue may be related to the ignition system components, such as the ignition coil or the distributor (if applicable), which could be failing to provide spark to the other cylinders. Additionally, check for any wiring issues or poor connections in the ignition circuit. It’s also worth inspecting the crankshaft position sensor, as it can affect spark timing and delivery. Lastly, ensure that the spark plugs and their wires are in good condition for proper operation.
