Placement of plug wires in rotor caps

Does someone have a diagram -sideview looking into each side of distributor- showing placement of plug wires into cap? I want to be correct fist time, no do overs. I have a persistent miss in motor trying to track down. Tanks in advance!! Steve

The brass high tension plug wire sockets are numbered in the plastic for either right or left cylinder bank plugs. You really cant get it wrong, can you? Regards, Kevin.

Kevin,
Some of the aftermarket caps do not always have this feature.

Yes but most all caps have the cylinders marked on them. Only cheap shit caps are not marked. Best not use them as some dimensions are also not correct. Regards, Kevin.
