Were is the number 1 plug - 1999 Lincoln Town Car

If you look at the distributor cap from the wires side carefully, you would find either a line mark on one of the outer side of four holes (where the spark plug wires are inserted) or the numbers printed on the top of distributor cap (1,3,4,2). Fix one end of the longest high tension plug wire into number 1 hole or the one marked with a line mark on the distributor cap and the other end on spark plug number 1 (the number 1 plug is toward the pulleys and the belts side, then No 2, No 3 and No 4). While standing in front of right wheel you will see the distributor cap in front of you. The rotor moves clock wise. After you fix the 1st cord, next comes number 3 plug wire. Insert one end of the cord into the next to 1 on the right hand side and press the other side of the cord on spark plug number 3. Next to 3 is the cord number 4 and the last one is number 2.

Here you go. Hope this helps FixYa up.

the firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. there should be alot of websites that show diagrams of this

If the wires are still in the distributer, AND, if you have a stock intake manifold, the firing order is on the manifold. If it's a V-8, the number 1, 3, 5, & 7 plugs are on the drivers side of the engine. The number 2, 4, 6, & 8 plugs are on the passenger side. The number 1 plug wire can be located by looking at the distributer from the front of the engine and visually looking between the distributer and the number 1 plug. Visualize the distributer as a clock. The number one position should be located between 4 and 5 o'clock and should have the longest wire of those on that side of the distributer.

If the wires have been pulled from the distributer, then, then, remove the rotor cap, turn the engine over slowly until the rotor is pointing to the number 1 plug. Using the firing order on the intake manifold, starting with number 1, replace the wires going clockwise around the distributer.

STANDING FRONT OF VECHICLE CYLINDERS FACING YOU ARE 4 5 6 AND BACK CYLINDERS IS 1 2 3 NOW ON PIECE PAPER LOOKING AT IGNITION COIL PACK FACING YOU WRITE BACK NUMBERS 123 AND UNDER THAT NUMBER 1 2 3 WRITE FRONT NUMBERS 5 6 4 THATS YOUR COIL PACK PLUG WIRES LOCATION. LIKE I SAY 5 6 4 IS PLUGS WIRES LOCATION FACING YOU AND BACK NUMBERS 1 2 3 PLUG WIRES LOCATION ON COIL PACK. FIRING ORDER IS 1 4 2 5 3 6

FORD SABLE HAD TWO 3.0 ENGINES. ENGINE WITH CRANKSHAFT PULLEY FACING FRONT TOWARD RADIATOR AND GRILLE. CYLINDERS ON LEFT PASSENGER SIDE IS 1 2 3 CYLINDERS ON DRIVER SIDE THE RIGHT IS 4 5 6 GET PIECE OF PAPER WRITE NUMBER 321 AND WRITE UNDER THAT NUMBER THE NUMBER 456 STACK THEM NUMBERS ON TOP OF EACH OTHER THATS WHERE PLUGS WIRES LOCATION IS THE ROUTE THEM TO CYLINDER SPARK PLUGS NOW IF YOU HAVE THE 3.0 ENGINE TURNED SIDE WAYS.CYLINDERS FACING YOU 4 5 6 AND BACK CYLINDERS ARE 1 2 3 GET A PIECE OF PAPER WRITE NUMBER 456 THEN WRITE THIS NUMBER UNDER THAT NUMBER 321 WITH NUMBERS ON TOP OF EACH OTHER.LINED UP.THAT WILL BE YOUR SPARK PLUGS WIRES LOCATION.THEN ROUTE THEM TO THE CYLINDERS LIKE 1 TO 1 CYLINDER.

Point the rotor @ the number one plug position on the distributor, but be sure that the number one cylinder is @ top dead center (all the way up).

For all Dodge 4 cylinder engines, the firing order is 1-3-4-2
All dodge distributors rotate clockwise.
Standing on passenger side number 1 is at bottom left or 7:00 o clock.
going clockwise number 3 plug wire is next then number 4 then last one is number 2 wire.
plug wire number 1 is 7:00 o clock
plug wire number 3 is 11:00 o clock
plug wire 4 is 1:00 o clock
Plug wire number 2 is 5:00 o clock

Firing order 1,6,5,4,3,2. To find number 1 plug at distributor set timing mark to top dead center on compression stroke and with distributor cap removed rotor will point to number 1 cylinder in cap. Also number 1 cylinder is on drivers side all the way to the front the next cylinder behind that is number 3 and then 5. So passenger side all the way from front will be 2,4,6 at the firewall. Number 1 plug wire will also be the second longest wire in most cases or as long as number 2 cylinder. Hope this helps.

With the 2T-C, 3T-C, and 3K-C engines the Firing Order is 1-3-4-2
The distributor rotates ->Clockwise. (The rotor actually)

Number 1 spark plug tower on the distributor cap, faces directly towards the engine. Number 2 faces the back of the engine, Number 4 faces the front of the engine, Number 3 is to the outside away from the engine.

Number 1 spark plug is at the front of the engine. 1-2-3-4

With the 4A-C engine, and other A-Series, the Firing Order is 1-3-4-2
The distributor rotates ->CounterClockwise.

Number 1 spark plug tower is towards the engine, and faces the back of the engine. Number 3 spark plug tower is away from the engine, and faces the back of the engine.
Number 2 spark plug tower is towards the engine, and faces the front.
Number 3 spark plug tower is away from the engine, and faces the front.
