Alright so to update... I have the same problem today.
I took the carbs off, really made sure the pilot was clean on #4, used carb cleaner, blew out the ports, etc. and went through the other 3 as well again. Also took the idle screw all the way to check and make sure the tip didn't break off. Everything looked good.
Set idle screws to 2.5 turns out. Bench synced again setting all the butterflies the same, as close as I could get with a small wire. Put carbs back on, fired up, warmed up. And #4 is still cold, and not getting fuel.
When cleaning them this morning, I also switched float #1 with #4 to determine if float height was the issue. It wasn't... problem is still on #4.
All the vacuum gauges are pretty close from the bench sync. 1+2 are almost dead on, 3+4 are a a bit off, but I haven't attempted to adjust them since #4 is not getting fuel it seems pointless.
Thinking I just turn out the idle screw until it gets fuel and sync them. Just seems weird that I'd have to when the other 3 are running correctly and this has no fuel... unless there is something I'm missing with the carbs. Sort of at a loss. I do have another set of carbs I could try, but this one is the better of the two.
