Warning, 240 newb so take it easy on me i just bought this thing a week ago and i need distributor/spark plug wire set up help
pretty much i have a non-spark issue and another off topic issue i need to clean the MAF but that can wait another few hours or so haha.
I replaced the wires cause they we're reading low ohms or whatever it's called according to my co-worker, haven't moved on to the spark plugs themselves as i wanted to see if it was just the plugs that we're bad. i think i might have botched the wiring order but i'm not sure
So from what i've searched online the firing order is 1-3-4-2, and cylinder closest to front of the engine is 1, then 2, 3, 4? or is cyl#1 the one closest to the firewall?
I did a search for a diagram on google but it doesn't show an actual engine bay with the wiring set up, and the ones i found we're for the DOHC KA's (not sure if it matters or not)
If anyone can help me with an actual picture of their set up or point out what's wrong or not wrong on the pictures below (pic of my actual engine bay the way i bought it from the previous owner) would be much appreciated.
Currently how the wires are set up from the cylinders to the dizzy

Thanks for looking
