I know the firing order of my car. It is: 1-2-3-4-5-6. I just need a picture to show me how to put them on the distributer. Please help.

Not sure what engine you have, but assuming you did not remove the distributor, if you can turn the engine until the #1 piston is at top-dead-center on the compression stroke (pull a plug and put your thumb over the hole while turning the engine by hand - if you feel pressure on your thumb, it is on compression stroke). While it is at top-dead-center, remove the distributor cap. The rotor will be pointing to #1 wire. Put the others on in a counter clockwise direction, in firing order (2-3-4-5-6).
