valve lash wouldn't do it, they would have to be so out of whack that you would have major other problems first. Have you wave formed the Cam/Crank sensor? If it is faulting it could be giving the wrong firing trigger to the ignition module, and only fire on one "bank" instead of both.

could also be a faulty ignition module. I would whip out the ole red brick and start diagnosing primary ignition components.

Just because the hole is getting spark, it doesn't mean it is a strong enough spark. That is where some spark testers fall short as they don't have a true resistance. I'm assuming you don't have access to something like a VAT-40 or anything to check the firing line on your plugs.

fuel + compression + spark = combustion. you must not be getting one of these. I would recomend some starter fluid to see if that makes it pick up, if it does you know it is a fuel delivery problem. if you have a timing light hook it up to the spark plug in question and see if it fires.
