    It is just a matter of time for the engine to die. Just hope it does not happen when you are pulling out into a busy intersection.

    Did you bother to find out WHY 1 cylinder is not working? It could be SIMPLY FIXED.

    The engine dragging that one dead cylinder is not good for it. It puts excess strain on the other 3 cylinders. It won't last long like that, but you can get away with it for a little while.
