Have a search before posting, the first thread i skimmed through came up with your answer

Firing Order: 1-3-4-2

Use the power to find out the rest.

i have been searching but here is like 10 diff firing orders that i have found so just so one to well me the right order and it has 8 plugs so 1-3-4-2 will work for thr frist 4 bit wat about the rest
thanks

seems obvious to me but i may be wrong.

R = rear

F= front

1 = cylinder 1
2=cylinder 2

?



join the dots

[BeRad]

Surely its more complicated .

Have a stab, obviously the numbers will go together and id take a stab in the dark r for rear and f for front as brett has pointed out, not that front or rear should matter unless one fires less ms on the exhaust stroke. now you need to find which cylinder is one, have a stab in the dark, it wont damage anything if its wrong, it just wont start, or search.

[brett_celicacoupe]

front most cylinder is always 1

looking at top of engine.

4R
4F

3R
3F

front of engine here

yeah i just didnt really want to get it wrong just in case i might blow something up
firing order 1-3-4-2 and f= front and r = rear all good thanks for the help..

[brett_celicacoupe]

you dont even have to consider the firing order as everything on the dizzy cap is labelled to plug straight in

[c budge]

yes i see now thank
