I just went through this on my truck and this is what I was told to do. Chevy does not mark the cap. 1) remove distributor cap, 2) locate number one cylinder and remove spark plug, 3) place finger or compression guage, or whistler etc, over spark plug opening 4) rotate engine until air is blowing out of the plug opening 5) rotor should be pointing to where the number one spot should be on the cap 6) mark the cap where the rotor is pointing this should be number one. Make notes somewhere so this does not happen again.

How do you replace the distributor cap on 97 Volkswagen jetta?
Mark your number one spark plug wire where it attaches to the cap ( i use white fingernail polish for marking parts ). Take your new distributor cap out of the box and mark it where you would put the number 1 spark plug cable on it. Then unplug the #1 spark plug wire and the coil wire ( the one in the middle ). Use your finger or carefully use a screwdriver to unpop the two metal clamps that hold the cap down. Since you are replacing your cap you should also replace the rotor, if you have a new one do that now. Plug the #1 spark plug wire and coil wire into the new cap and put it on the distriburtor. Pull off the other spark plug wires and plug them into the new cap , one at a time, in the same place where they were on the original cap.
