curious to know what goes wrong in a fuel distributor? since it's not timed i assume all the ports are at the same pressure? so why would just one cylinder be affected?

i've run a number of bottles of fuel system cleaner through over the few years i've owned the car. it was a very low mileage car when i bought it so sat alot for it's first 23 years.

maybe i need to run a can of seafoam through somehow to get a high concentration through the fuel distributor?

any ideas or do i just go for the replacement. my mechanic insists the miss problem is low fuel pressure to #8 cylinder.
