where is the number one plug wire go to on the distrubiter cap on a i995 Honda delco
Firing order 1342 OK but where is #1 on cap
Depending on maker, it should have a number 1 raised letter on the cap
should be in a straight line from center of the distributer cap to the #1 cylinder, or pointing at the #1 cylinder
where ever you want it to be just make sure you put the motor at top dead center on cylinder number one and stab the distributer where the rotor points at on the cap is number one and just go clock wise order and use the Chevy firing order
distributer cap, low octane gas, or spark plugs i would do the distributer cap first.
sounds like you have moisture in the distributer next time it wont start, remove distributer cap, and using a hair dryer, dry inside distributer cap,and inside distributer
first run number one cylinder to top dead center on the compression stroke. then set the distributer till the firing tip on the roder is pointing directly at the number 1 spark plug wire on the distributer cap.
