I would try to determine why #3 is showing odd readings before lumping out good cash on a new converter. What does the plug color (medium brown) look like? Are they all the same?

The coil should not make a difference on one cylinder but the rotor may be iffy gap wise on #3? Check inside the dist. cap and make sure the electrode looks the same as the others. Caps may look OK but can break down under high voltage so swap it out with another if you have one.

If you are in the Portland area I have a spare cap/rotor and lead set to try.
