If you just had the injectors rebuilt, chances are your ok there.
Start the engine and then pull one spark plug wire at a time, then put it back and move to the next one. Clearly if the pitch of the motor changes when you pull that wire, then that cylinder was working fine. When you pull a wire and nothing changes, you've found the dead cylinder. Could be a bad spark plug, a poorly gapped plug, a bad connect from the plug wire to the plug, a bad plug wire itself... Could be many different things..
Have you ever swapped the distributor cap and rotor? In time the rotor can crack, or the seal around the cap can go bad and you can get moisture in there.
Try squirting wd40 around the edge of the cap. It drives out moisture and helps you get a better connection.
Try those things and get back to us and we'll keep working on it.
Good luck
