After fixing one problem I've created another...I took off 2 wires off the dist. to make more hand room for a sensor under the plenum. I removed a 3rd wire and now I'm screwed...I forgot which wire go's where on the dist. How in the world do I hook this back up right.

If you look closely, you'll see that all these firing orders are exactly the same, just the cylinders are numbered differently (and the distributor spins backwards from chevy)
