Putting things back together on my 84 southwind and I can’t seem to get my plug wires correct on my distributor 🤦‍♂️ Would someone mind labeling the dizzy with cylinder numbers?

My firing order is 1-8-4-5-6-2-7-3



Thanks for the help!

This is a trick question because can't know where the number 1 cylinder is without more information.

You should remove the cap, find Top dead center on the compression stroke of cylinder 1 and then take a picture of the engine again without the distributor cap.

I think I just needed a mind reset, thanks for the help! I found cylinder 1 and then was good to go. Doh!

Fired right up and running great!
