I thought all 4-cylinder motors have the same firing order? lol anyway, it is 1-3-4-2

Its not hard man num 1 on the dizzy is the closest to the radiator and the direction is clockwise so knowing the firing order is 1-3-4-2 that means the num 3 will be the bottom teminal on the dizzy. Now as far as what num each cylinder is the num 1 cylinder is closest to the timing belts or on the driver side of the car, going in order cylinder 4 is farthest on the passenger side, obviously the terminal in the middle of the dizzy goes to the external coil if applicable. Distributor 1-3-4-2 Cylinders 4-3-2-1



Hope this helps

If this is a fresh engine, belt job, or has had valve adjust with the timing belt off I would line up all the timing marks on the belt, check to make sure the dizzy rotor is pointing at the radiator then make sure the num 1 piston is up, you can do this by removing the spark plug and gently lowering a piece a vacuum line down into the cylinder, if you bottom out after using say 2 ft of vacuum line then the piston is obviously not tdc and you need to remove your timing belt and rotate the crank 180 deg ccw. A much easier way to test this is running a compression test I believe 120 psi is the lowest itll run but thats horrible compression
