ka24e running off of 3 cylinders

so i had a technician come over and take a look at my car and we finally got my car running, and everything sounds perfect but he told me that the no1 cylinder is not firing.

i know he is right because he showed me by touching my headers and the pipe that comes out of the no1 piston was ice cold, compared to the other pipes on my header which were hot as hell.

i have compression and i just got news plugs, wires, cap, and rotor???

white smoke pours out of the exhaust though!

i changed the fuel injector that ports into the no1 cylinder a couple months ago and this is the first time i have started it with the injector, i got it from the junk yard off of another ka24e engine, but it was out of a staza, could that possibly be the reason????

you said white smoke pours out of the exhaust? Okay maybe im jumping to conclusions or nobody thought of this. Coolant makes white smoke... and lots of it... could you have coolant going into the cylinder from a head gasket or damaged/corroded water jacket line or something?
