Well, the long flame is quite normal on our cars

Check all the carburetor stuff. I'd usually be more helpful, but I'm tired.
What do you mean by weird miss? I don't understand this 'dropped a cylinder.'

Well, I wish I were some kind of mechanic, but, I'm not. For really detailed help, you'll have to wait for someone who knows what they're doing!
As far as I can tell, your barrels aren't quite opening right.
All I can tell you is to rebuild the carb, or just up and buy a new one. If you aren't willing to pull the carb out of a car that's still sort of running, I have a carb that needs a rebuilding that I can sell you for dirt cheap.
