88 crx si spark plug distributor order?

Answer 1

if i remember correctly, it's 1-3-4-2.

if you're on the right side (passenger side) of the car and your looking into the engine bay, it should look like this:

◄inside of car, firewall

___

| |

|O O|

|O O|

\__/

►front of car, headlights

the bottom left is the first firing position, and it goes clock-wise

◄inside of car, firewall

___

| |

|2 3|

|1 4|

\__/

► front of car, headlights

so this is what the firing order is. this is NOT the same as the cylinder order!

when you're looking at the engine, it'll look something like this:

the distributor cap is on the left side of this diagram, the headlights are on the bottom and the inside of the car it on the top.

↓the intake manifold is right here↓

_____________

| |

| O O O O |

| |

| ____________|

↑the exhaust manifold (headers) are here↑

the cylinders are numbered like so:

↓the intake manifold is right here↓

_____________

| |

| 4 3 2 1 |

| |

|_____________|

↑the exhaust manifold (headers) are here↑

so the firing order from the dist. cap goes like this.

Dist. cap Cylinder

1 1

2 3

3 4

4 2

you'll know it's right when it runs good. if it's wrong, it sounds like it's run like junk. like it's a wrx or something. don't leave it like that. it'll cause serious damage to the engine if it's left like that. also, it will have no power at all. so there's no point in leaving it like that.
