Timing and Firing Orders
Firing order refers to the order of power delivery of the cylinders in an engine. Timing and firing orders both contribute to the engine’s fuel economy, power, and longevity. Achieving the proper timing is critical in the engine’s performance.

1997 Ford Mustang your car is stalling and sometimes dies out while driven?
I have a 1997 Ford Mustang Cobra in good condition. However, a couple of weeks ago, I was driving and it suddenly died on my. I tried to start it back up and it would crank but not fire (like it isn't getting any fuel). I usually have to wait about 10 min and it will fire right up and run strong for about 20 minutes before dying again. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with my car? Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

Source Haynes repair manual top 7 reasons for stalling:
1. idle speed incorrect
2. fuel filter clogged
3. damaged or wet coils
4. faulty emissions system
5. incorrect gap spark plugs or wires
6. vaccum leak at the intake manifold or vaccum hoses
7. fuel injection or engine control malfunction
We personally think its a fuel pump or your coils. We have one of the same models.
Hope this helps
How do you put the spark plug wires on in the right order?
It is best to remove one wire, measure it up against the new set to find one close to the same length, and replace that one wire. Then move on to the next one. Worse thing you can do is just pull them all off.

Is it worth replacing a camshaft seal on a 97 breeze and how?
If this is a 4-cyl, it is a very in-depth process to replace the seal...removing motor mounts and the majority of engine components to be able to pull the camshaft. If it is necessary, follow instructions for replacing the head gasket on your model. You can replace the seal at the point of removing the Timing Belt.

Look at this: http://autorepair.about.com/library/firing_orders/bl-fo-5830.htm
I'm having that done now(98 S10). $380 to replace the chain. If they have to pull the oil pan to remove broken pieces, it will be $805. When they get it back together, they will do a compression test to see if any valves are bent. Don't know what it will cost to fix that.
Is there an easy way to get the spark plug wires off the plugs to change them?
There are tools designed for spark plug wire removal, these tools greatly simplify removing the wires and help prevent you from tearing the wire.
There are short reach and long reach tools.
Most auto parts stores carry them and they are not too expensive and greatly help to aleeviate frustration.
How do you disconnect the computer to adjust the basic timing on a 1992 Mazda 929?
You don,t disconnect the computer on any car to adjust base timing. That,s what runs the car, you disconnect spark advance and that varies according to make and model. Take note if your car does not have a distributer and it,s a coil pack you can not adjust base timing that is done by the computer only. If your car has a distributer I would contact a dealer or get a Chiltons manual on how to set base timing. I could not tell you how to disconnect the advance on your car not formilar with your distributer
The Left bank would be odd numbered, and the timing is: 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2
What is Before top dead center?
Before Top Dead Center (BTDC) is a term used to describe the position of a piston inside an internal combustion engine during its upward stroke. It is a value, measured in degrees, that represents the amount of crankshaft rotation prior to the apex of this stroke.

What are the timing marks for a 1988 Audi 80?
I depends on engine you have in your car. All timing marks are located on the crankcase pulley, cam pulley and, distributor has timing marks as well. In order to view all timing marks, be sure to have the front bumper removed & timing belt covers removed. In order to turn the crankcase by hand. Have a bottle of whiteout ready to place on timing marks for easy refferance. Always crank your wrench clockwise during timing mark lineup, remove sparkplugs to lose the engines compression. Whatever you do, do not remove the timg belt until you have all refferance marks lined up. At the crankcase, you will notice a permant refferance marker, ture the crankcase until you see a small notch on front of the pully. Once you find it, view the timing marks for the cam pulley. if the notch mark on the pulley don't line up with it's own refferance marker, turn the crankcase till these marks line up together. If they line-up, remove the distributor cap from the distributor and check to see if the rotor button lines-up with the number 1 notch on the car's distributor. If so, it's time to replace the water pump, crankcase seals, camshaft seals and install a new thermostat. Be sure all the pulley are locked into place to keep from moving when installing the new timing belt. To save yourself any headaches, buy a factory manual that has all the torque specs when replacing everything.
What torque for ford 600 tractor cylinder head?
The torque is 65-70 ft lbs. Looking at the head with the valve cover area away from you the bolts are numbered top row 7, 5, 1, 3, 10 and the bottom row 11, 9, 4, 2, 6, 8, 12. Tighten them in in order from 1 to 12. The rocker arm bolts are torqued to 45- 50 ft lbs.
Yes, the timing changes with RPM with internal regulator, set the timing so that the performance will be pleasant and the motor will still not knock during idle. With higher octane fuel you can set the ignition to begin sooner, with low-octane fuel (such as was used in 1974) you would have to stick with that factory settings, note that most of the world does not offer option to tank such poor fuels as were available in 1974.
What happens when you have the wrong firing order?
If you have the wrong leads going to the wrong spark plugs, then you will have a spark when the cylinder is somewhere other than where it should be, which is at the top of the compression stroke ready to drive the piston down and provide power. If you can start your car, it will be running very rough, have no real power at all and your gas mileage will be measured in gallons per mile. You are also running the risk of serious internal damage to the very expensive valves, so I suggest you fix it immediately.
