I have a 740 GLE that i just changed the plugs and wires on. While doing it i was distracted by talking to my neighbor and like an idiot i pulled off all of the wires without noting the proper location of each wire on the distributor cap. I know that the firing order is 1-3-4-2 but i don't know how what ports on the distributor cap correspond with what number. The cap is not a typical round one, it faces the passenger compartment and the ports all come off of the side that faces up and are arranged in a row rather than in a circle. I also know that the cylinders are numbered
1-4 starting with the one closest to the fan. Does anyone have one of these that could tell me the order that the wires come out of the distributor? My Haynes repair manual is useless in this respect. Please help to save me from my own stupidity!- posted
