And amazingly enough, people can still **** it up - so do it one wire by one wire, if you want to be sure about things.

when you take off the cap one by one take the wires off nad put it on the new one that way you dont get the firing order wrong

the firing order is 1342. before you take the cap off mark where the number one plug wire was at then just put them back on. or you can just put them on one by one.
3
1 4
2

should be something like that looking at the dizzy from teh passanger side
