Hello everyone I was just recently doing a tune up on my car. Everything was going well except I made a mistake when I pulled out the spark plug wires from the distributor. I wasn't sure of what the spark plug order was on the distributor so I looked online and found this one. According to AutoZone the firing pattern on my engine is 1-3-4-2. So I plugged everything accordingly. The bottom left I plugged in to the 3rd spark plug hole (starting from 1 being the cylinder closest to the front of the car .) Second the bottom right distributor I plugged into the 4th spark plug hole, the top right I plugged in to the 2nd spark plug hole and the last one on the top left. So according to the diagrams everything is plugged in correct but now my car won't start and it was running yesterday. Is it possible that if I had plugged them in wrong the first time it could of changed the timing sequence? Does anyone know a quick fix for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
