Perhaps the carb for that cylinder needs to be cleaned.

Its telling you that carb is lean, need to fatten it up some.

I rebuild all 6 of the carbs. I guess I can pull that particular one off .

Missing is usually caused by an ignition issue. If the carb turns out to be a dead-end, try running it at night with the hood off & look for an arcing wire or cracked coil.

If not mistake, i did pull the plug on one while running and noticed the spark was arcing on the bolt that bolts the coil down. It was at night when I noticed it. Once I out the wire but on, didnt see any more arcing
