Spark plug wire help!!!
So I was in such a hurry to put my new plugs and wiresin that I took out my old ones and pulled off the wires, then I realized I dont know where the wires plug into the distributor!!! I have a manual thats shows the firing order of the cylinders, but I still dont know what postion to plug them into the cap. This isnt the first time Ive done this either. I did it in my corvette about a year ago too!! Please help, Thanks

Take your distributor cap off and turn the engine over so that the rotor points at the #1 plug wire which is at 1:00 O'clock. That wire then goes to the #1 plug. Now going counter-clockwise, the next one goes to the next plug, etc, until you get them all hooked up. 4 8
