Hi, according to my manual, the firing order is the same for each of these model years for the 280zx. 1979,1980,1981 and 1982. The firing order is 1-5-3-6-2-4. The black terminal on the distributer cap is is the #1 spark plug. Then going counter clockwise you should be able to find each plug wire that leads to the # plug you are looking for. I hope this is helpful and good luck.

Many people have not yet had theyre questions answered on the firing order of a straight six. My brother owns a 1984 Nissan/Datsun Maxima and it has the same engine as the 280zx. The firing order is, 1-4-5,2-3-6, this way the engine stays completely balanced at all times, and has a high power output.

There is no firing order with datsun injection. It is a "batch fire" system. That means when 1 injector fires they all do. The system gets a signal from the ignition coil as to when to fire.
