Which way does rotor turn in the distributor?

When I removed the cap, the rotor was pointed exactly at the wire coming into the distributor. When I reinstalled it to where it was pointed at the same place. Sorry, I don't know what the wire is called. It's not the wire that goes to the cap, but the other one.

Condenser lead maybe?
Sounds like you stabbed it right back in where it was. What's the problem you're having with it?
