Dizzy firing order
Hi,
My mechanic is just fitting the dizzy and sorting out
the timing but he is having problems working out where number 1 is on the dizzy, where he expects it to be dosn't relate to TDC as he would expect it to. (He is more used to V6s)
I sssume the correct firing order is 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8 so once no 1
is defined the others should be simple I'm also assuming the cylinders are
Front of Car
5 1
6 2
7 3
8 4
If i'm wrong please tell me
What point is TDC?
I'm not that mechanical myself so I may have asked the questions in a daft way
Thanks
Paul
