"I'm thinking it could be a fuel injector"
     Very little chance, but there is a 99% chance it is a problem
with the electrical circuit going to this injector.

The plug is sparking and new and there is compression although I don't actually have a tool to test it by.  The plug doesn't seem wet even after it's been running.  The other cylinder on that side definitely gets gas and runs.
