Spark Plug Wire Routing

[NavyDoc]

I searched and I didn't find what I was looking for. Im sure the information is on the forum but it has eluded me.

Can someone please post pictures of how you routed your spark plug wires? The guy who last worked on my rig's spark plug wires had no idea what he was doing. The plug wires are basically woven all the way to the distributor...Ive never seen anything so ridiculous. I have all of the plastic clips to hold them in place, I just cant figure out the best route for each of them. Thanks in advance.

Dumb question for you but I just had this issue come up. .Took truck to get a tune up and now one of my cylinders is missing. Check out the plug wires and looks like a couple were crossed.. Need to clean this up.. Made the mistake of pulling the wires without noting the location on Dist Cap..

Do the numbers on the Dist cap correspond to the Cylinder? i.e working back from front of engine #1, then #2, #3, #4, #5, with the #6 at the rear by the firewall?

Tredwards thanks for posting the Diagram huge timely help.. I've got a FM on a Memory stick but I'm not very good at searching it.. Need to bite the bullet and print or buy one..

Thanks for confirming my suspicion on the numbering..

Front to back is 1-6 e.g. the cylinder closest to the radiator is #1.

I agree, I need to purchase a manual as well. The way my PDF manual is organized has a bunch of subfolders and is quite difficult to search.

Most dizzy caps have the numbers indicated by each terminal, so that helps make it easy to do a good matchup of cylinders. Most I have seen have the #1 cylinder straight up as you look at the top of the cap from the side of the rig. John

thank you very much Navy Doc.. Was able to get my wires back in order and found they are not OEM.. Seeing as how the OEM wires that were on previously lasted over 15yrs.. I'm going to find Beno's number and get a set of OEM with new clips (found out some were broken ;(.

I'll let you know if I can find a way around the PDF manual.. I"m thinking about taking the PDF to Kinkos and having them just print every section up then I can place them in protective sheets in a nice binder for the different sections of the car (i.e. electrical, mechanical, body etc..)

Hmm, we home school our little ones perhaps this might be a good business project for them?? For us Paper guys this might be helpful..

thank you again,
Cheers,

Glad to help. Im sure the other guys will chime in, but I ended up purchasing some NGK plug wires from RockAuto for my LC (to go with my new NGK plugs!). They were on sale for about $50. They work great. I had similar NGK plugs in my last Supra, which was making around 400 hp and it ran great. NGK (IMO) makes really good stuff.

Just a thought. Im all about Toyota OEM, but Ill go aftermarket for certain things.

Also, let me know about the manual. I would really like a copy of a manual in PDF that was one continuous string of pages rather than a million subfolders...ugh.

Haha. They can work on counting and the important skill of organization!
