Dry is good, but white is bad! It means that the engine is running lean, which will result in the engine running too hot and can cause serious engine damage (even seizure). Below is a guide to reading the spark plug color.
Black = Rich. The fuel/air mixture is too rich (too much fuel, not enough air).
Tan/Brown = Normal. The fuel/air mixture is correct.
White = Lean. The fuel/air mixture is too lean (too much air, not enough fuel).

well the real question is do you have spark are you getting fuel? well you can take and roll the motor oveer and then pull the spark plug. if the spark plug is wet you don't have spark if the spark plug is dry you have spark that's the easiest way to take a look. the motor need three thing to run fuel oxygen and spark. DO NOT ROLL THE MOTOR OVER WITH THE SPARK PLUG OUT OF THE CYLINDER YOU WILL MORE THAN LIKELY LIGHT THE FUEL THATS PUSHED OUT OF THE MOTOR IN THE COMPRESSION STAGE. when you find out if the motors getting fuel and not spark it could be your crank sensor which tells the motor when to ignite the spark plug to cause your explosion which makes the motor run. i hope this was helpful.

You need compression, spark and fuel. The misfire cylinder is missing one of those. Do a compression test to see if the valves and rings are okay, all cyinders should be within 10% of each other. Pull the spark plug out of the suspected cylinder, if the plug is wet it probably does not have spark. If the plug is dry it probably is not getting fuel (port injected engine).
