#1 post on distributor

Line up the timing marks on the vibration damper and timing chain cover to TDC. Take off the dist cap and see which position the rotor is pointing to (make sure that you are not 180° off).

Once you have determined which is #1, put the #1 plug wire on that position of the distrbutor cap and then follow the timing order around the cap in the direction of rotation for the rest of the wires. 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2
