86 chevy caprice classic
need to know #1 pug on distruber to start firing order for wires. nothing was marked or replaced when taking on project. any infomation about why car won't start would be helpful. started running sluggish & stalling. would do good on a highway stretch, but stop and go wouldn't cut it. trying to replace wires & plugs. but can't get placed properly to try and start car.

Re: 86 chevy caprice classic
Should be straight out to the back of the carb. The firing order is cast into the intake manifold (if it's stock).
Should be 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 |

Re: 86 chevy caprice classic
Be sure to have a fully charged battery on hand, and check the coil connection(s). Sometimes, the coil ends get bent up and it only appears you're connected.
Even if the coil screws penetrated the cap, it should at least "try" to start. Let us know how it goes |

Re: 86 chevy caprice classic
All you need to do is drain the oil/change the filter and refill.
You need to pull all the plugs (at once), and hold the throttle open and crank for about 20 seconds (clear out the raw gas from the cylinders). Either clean or replace (I'd replace) the spark plugs. Button everything up and hit the key. |
