I need a little help with the firing order on my 1970 40, cap says one way and the book (haynes) says different, I know the firing order but I dont know which wire goes to which plug. any help would be great.
 
Memorize this.. 1 5 3 6 2 4
same on all cruisers i've ever owned from 64-93
 
The firing order will go right around the cap...

1 5 3 6 2 4 too young, too old, just right! ;)

Toyota caps have the positions numbered....not that it would really matter, it is all relative to the rotor and cap, any spot can be the #1 spot...


klear as mudd?
 
ok let me try this again. the book says that 1 should be on the cap where 5 is, and 5, where 3 should be and 3 where 6 is and I think you get it.
 
Same as a BMW...and most every I6 I have ever seen.

Huh? Align to top dead center, put # on on that move em around as the order fits. got no idea what the book says, don't use them when dropping in a dist. I worry about tdc and pointing to #1 and if it's engaged in the oilpump. Throw that book down on the ground, note Top Dead center put #1 there and then your golden!
