Cylinders 1-4 run together and 2-3 do also. Check your coil driver wire on cylinders 2 and 3 make sure it is getting a pulse from the pcm to fire the plugs.

Have you checked your plugs? Check compression on those cyilinders and see if you are getting fuel to the cylinder via the fuel injectors. Might have to check flow on the fuel injectors.

I'm having the same problem. Water pump fragged and took the timing belt with it. Replaced both and cyls 2 and 3 will not fire. Tried 3 coil packs with same issue. Cyl compression on 1 thru 4 is 150 psi. Tried a boneyard PCM replace and same problem exists. No fire on 2 and 3.
