Are you using new coils? This is interesting, swap coils with the next cylinder, does it do the same thing, If yes leave the mounting screw out, same thing? Which cylinder I should have asked that first.

Also take a look at the spark plug at the failing coil. It might be shorted out or gapped wrong.
