Actually, with the pointer on the flywheel lined up , you have a 50/50 chance of it being cylinder #1 or cylinder #4 ready to fire.

Hi Chuck, Align the silver ball in the flywheel with the timing pointer (lower right rear of the engine, by starter) That should be top dead center for the #1 cylinder. Now check and see where the rotor of the distributer is pointing. This is where the #1 plug wire should be on the dist cap. Then clockwise, I think, the remaining plug wires, 1,3,4, and 2. That should do it. Feel free to call me, 847-343-5445 if you have a question with it. Gordy
