On a 455 Oldsmobile distributor, the number one spark plug wire is typically located at the 5 o'clock position when viewing the distributor from the driver's side of the engine. The rotor will point towards the number one cylinder, which is usually the front cylinder on the driver's side. Make sure to confirm the firing order and verify the cylinder layout for accuracy during installation.
