Post by xpress »

HI. What's number one spark plug, the one nearest the radiator, then 2, 3 and 4 towards the firewall? Cheers.

Just to recap, is it 1, 3, 4, 2, order: top left on the distributor, bottom left, bottom right, top right?

LMAO ... and there is me always doing it the other way around - I go anti-clockwise around the dizzy & from the battery forward to the radiator ... seems to work though!
