Engine: Alky 360
Transmission: TH400, Freakshow 9.5"
Axle/Gears: 9" 4.71
Firing is 18436572.
Drivers side is your odd cylinder with #1 of course at the front
Passenger side is even side
Unhook the power to your distributor, remove #1 spark plug and have some one crank over while you hold your finger ove rthe spark plug hole. when air pressure blows pas tyour finger that is #1 tdc.
Remove dist cap and see where your rotor is pointing. That spot in relation to the cap will be #1 then teh rest follow around in a clockwise pattern if looking at the distributor form the front of the engine.
Good Luck!!!

ok so i did all the stuff everyone said and i have the same problem stated at the top of the page and i still have the same problem. it was fine untill i changed the cap and rotor out and i have checked the firing order timing everything i can think of... what do i do please tell me if you have an idea. i have done the tdc and everything. i just dont understand it was just a normal tune up and after i finished she didnt run worth a flip.
