Does anyone have a diagram of the TBI firing order?
I let my mom use my car and the water pump went out, and naturally she didn't notice the temp gauge so I blew a head gasket. I took it to a mechanic and he put on a new water pump and a new gasket. He also replaced the plugs and said napa didn't have the wires in stock so I bought some and took em off one at a time and replaced them the same way he had them. But the car is misfiring bad. I sounds like it has a monster cam in it.
So I'm guessing (hoping) that this may be the problem. So if anyone has a diagram I can look at to check this, that would be great.
Also any other ideas on possible problems would be appreciated.
Ok so now I got the firing order and I know how to count them, how do I know where they are placed on the dist. cap? Or is that labeled too? Sorry I don't know a whole lot about this, plus it's dark and I couldnt tell if they where numbered.
Stock location for #1 is just to the right (viewing from the front) in the front of the cap, next to it, on the left, is where the #8 plug wire goes, continue around clockwise in regards to the firing order.
