    Cause of 3 cylinders?

    What is the cause of running on 3 cylinders? Is it cause of a fuel injector not working? Also the car has stood up for 3 months with no use and had quater a tank of fuel and was wondering if the fuel has gone a bit stale or something. Just put a tank of v power in it to see if it helps.
