A cylinder that flooded wouldnt fire even if the plug and coil were working perfectly.

Yeah that's what I was thinking but I'm mot very knowledgeable with engines, just thought it was a possibility after people telling me it could happen.
It would be too much of a coincidence that Fuel Injector #3 had an issue and then right after Engine Rod #3 got bent and they weren't correlated. I believe there is some correlation between the 2.
