Re: 1983 Cadillac firing order
18436572 is correct. You might have the wrong distributor terminal as the #1 cyl.
Try removing the #1 spark plug (front one on the driver side) and turn the engine over by hand (Wrench on the crank pully bolt) until you feel the engine coming up to the TDC position on the #1 cyl. (you will feel the air being blown out of the open spark plug hole)
Pop off the dist cap and see there the dist rotr is pointing. The terminal its pointing to is for the #1 cyl. Then hook up the wires in sequence from there.
Keep in mind that rotor spins counter clockwise which is the opposite direction from most engines.
