What are your compression readings ?
If you have a timing light, try connecting it to the #2 plug lead and see if
it works.
Try removing #2 plug, connecting the plug wire to it, then laying or holding
the metal shell against a grounded surface while someone cranks the engine.
That will let you examine the spark.
I have seen it happen that brand new plugs get glazed within just a few
miles when run in a motor with other problems. Then when you solve the
other problems, the glazed plug still causes a misfire. So another thing to
try is swapping the #2 plug with another cylinder to ensure the problem
stays at #2. Do the same thing with the plug wire.
How much timing scatter do you see ? Have you checked the point gap after
#2 fires ?
Just a few things to try ...
