I noticed yesterday that two of my plug wires came off of the distributor cap, it must have been when I was leaning in the engine bay trying to get the steering U-joint loose. Can someone tell me what order they go in. The ones that came off are 2 and 4 I think(1 is the front most cylinder right?)

Edit: I just put this here because I thought It'd get answered faster, but if this belongs in the KA section mods please move it.

The firing order is 1-3-4-2 and the engine spins counterclockwise.Chase down the wire from cylinder #1 (front of engine closest to fan) and then follow the next wire up to #3 etc. etc...counterclockwise.

Yeah, thanks, I ended up getting it done, I found the firing order, and after cleaning the top of the distributor I found that the terminals are numbered right on top, it was just covered in grime.
