Default Wrong spark plug wiring

1997 Accord LX Non-vtec (F22B2)

After tons of research, I think I still have my spark plug wiring wrong. I forgot to do them one by one, and pulled them all off.

I've changed the spark plugs (NGK pre-gapped), spark plug wires, dist. cap, dist. rotor).

As of now, I have tried 3 different configuarations:

Engine = 4 3 2 1

3 (coil plug) 4
1 - 2

1 (coil plug) 3
2 - 4

2 (coil plug) 1
4 - 3

I also just noticed on both the older dist. cap and the new one, there's a circled A which Im assuming is marking for the #1 cylinder. I assumed that config #2 (above) was the right one from getting it from another accord-specific forum, but that's assuming the cylinders = 4 3 2 1 (looking into the engine bay from the front) and the firing order is 1 3 4 2.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

the firing order is 1-3-4-2. The cylinders start from the timing belt 1 being the closest to the belt, 4 being closest to the dizzy. #1 cylinder lead on the cap is the one that on the 'top right' of the cap if you look at it from the passenger side fender.
