Your engines cylinder numbers are while facing the engine, 1234, the firing order of it is 1,3,4,2. There should be a 1 on the distributer of where the first wire should go, there, then to the 1 cylinder, then the second spot on the distributer, will go to cylinder 3, then the 3rd spot, in a clockwise motion, will go to cylinder 4, and the last one left will go to cylinder 2.

I hope you dont have the dual plug head, or this wont make any sense.
