Want this question answered?
The wire sequence on the distributor cap just goes 1 thru 6, clockwise, starting from the number one position (which should be marked either on the cap or distributor).
There are two screws that hold it to the distributor.
No need to if the distributor was not moved.
on this old distributor there is a cap that holds the wires in place on the distributor. Is there a trick to remove top cap?
When the # 1 piston is at TDC on the compression stroke, the rotor is pointing to at the # 1 position on the cap. # 1 cylinder is on driver's side, at front of engine.

Number 1 on the distributor cap is the top post closet to the firewall. Looking at the distributor cap it would be... top row 1-3 bottom 2-4
