You dont say what engine you have but this is the most commmon. The cylinders are numbered 1-2-3-4 front to back on the pass. side and 5-6-7-8 on the drivers. Pull the #1 plug and bump the starter and when you feel the piston come up on compression, turn the engine slowly intil the timing mark is on top deae center. Pull the cap and where the rotor is pointing is where #1 wire goes. Then contimue with the wires. 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8 in a counterclockwise direction. #1 wire should be just to the right of center in the back when viewed from the front of the engine unless it has been changed.

95 g20 is getting no spark what do you check besides fuses?
Few things. Check first of all the spark plugs make sure they don't need to be changed. Then it if they are in good condition that is not burnt or covered in oil/grease (if so that might be the problem change them) check the spark plug wires and make sure the spark gets to the end. But if the spark does show but it still doesn't ignite its most likely the timing. If no spark go to the rotor and make sure that's its in a good condition. Most likely its the sparkplugs or the wires less likely the distributor. Check them in any order you preffer. But my guess it would be the spark plugs

Why does your Mustang misfire?
The main reason a car misfires is because the spark plug wires are not installed correctly. Check the car's firing order to ensure the spark plug wires running from the distributor cap to the spark plugs (in the cylinders) are in the right order. One or more spark plugs could be damaged or worn so the firing order is correct, but the spark plugs are not sparking into the spark plug wires to ignite the engine.
