Re: 89 2.3l omc(ford) firing order
was wondering if anybody had a link to show me exactly which one was #1 on distributor
.
Not going to happen. No one here knows if your 89 engine ever had the distributor removed and reinstalled in possibley the wrong place.
The only thing you can do is to find #1 TDC on the compression stroke. Then look at the rotor. It will be pointing to where #1 spark plug wire should be located.
Best way to locate #1 TDC on the compression stroke is to remove the spark plugs, turn the engine by hand while you stick your finger into #1 spark plug hole, when you feel the engine starting to build compreesion, you are coming up on TDC. Continue turning slowly (take your finger out of the hole) till the TDC timing mark lines up with the pointer. That is #1 TDC on the compression stroke. Now, look at your rotor.
