I lost my Chilton manual, and may have swapped two of the plug wires. If you have or know where the chart is (I've looked), it would be appreciated. Thanx.

Easy way to remember your firing order (I've remembered it ever since I heard this)

Start with 18, double it, 36, double that, 72. All you need to remember really is 18, the rest will just stick in your brain. Now that you've got the three pairs, 4 and five in "order", 4 is between 18 and 36, and 5 is between 36 and 72.

18-4-36-5-72
