How do i find sparkplug wire locations from distributor to sparkplug?
To find the spark plug wire locations from the distributor to the spark plug, a person will need to know the firing order of the engine. Engine sizes and years for motor vehicles have different firing orders. "Chilton's Repair Manuals" is a good source for finding the specific firing order for most engines.

This is close to the Firing Order of most GM and Chrysler small block V8 engines which is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. However, I know of no V8 engine using this firing order. So, what it is I cannot say, except it appears to be the firing order for a V8.

By asking the question again and listing the make, model, year, and engine size. You will then get an answer. However, as you listed this in the Ford category and if it is a Ford F-150 diesel engine the firing order is 1-2-7-3-4-5-6-8
How many firing orders are there in a straight six engine?
The firing order is the sequence in which spark is sent from the distributor to the different numbered cylinders. there is only 1 firing order per engine, but each engine manufacturer may use a different one depending on how the engine is built. In example for a four cylinder Isuzu engine the firing order is 1,3,4,2 and the cylinders are numbered 4,3,2,1 from front to back, so as the distributor rotor turns the spark is first sent to cylinder 1 which is at the top of its compression stroke, then it goes to number 3 which is the next cylinder to reach the top of its compression stroke and so on. Remember all stright 6 cyl. engines fire in this order. 1-5-3-6-2-4 Just remember this 15 is to young- 36 is to old and 24 is just right. There are 2 possible firing orders for a 6 cyl. engine. The one stated above and 1-4-2-6-3-5. This was in use some years ago, but I dont know if it still is. In the sixties Ford in Europe used 1-2-4-3 for 4 cyl. engines.
How can I tell if I have a 400 or a 460 in my 78' Ford F250 Ranger?
I'm not a mechanic / technician but I do know that the 400 and the 460 have different firing orders : The 400 firing order is ( 1 - 3 - 7 - 2 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 8 ) Counterclockwise rotor , and the 460 firing order is ( 1 - 5 - 4 - 2 - 6 - 3 - 7 - 8 ) counterclockwise distributor rotor so if you look at the spark plug wires on the distributor cap and # 1 and then the next spark plug wire is # 3 so they both go to the passenger side of the engine it would NOT be the 460 cubic inch ( On both engines the # 1 position on the distributor cap faces to the REAR and slightly towards the drivers side ) ( On both engines the cylinder / spark plug locations are numbered : ) firewall 4 - 8 3 - 7 2 - 6 1 - 5 front
