Crasher 3 Posted November 20, 2006 Look on the distributor body top edge with the cap off and you will see a small notch, which is number one. Put the cap back on and look for the lead that corresponds to that notch and then follow the arrow on the outside of the distributor body in the firing order 1, 3, 4, 2. If someone has told you 1, 4, 3, 2, that is for the flat four motor. The mixture is enriched by turning the screw clockwise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
