Need to know the firing order for a ram 1500 pickup with a 5.9 lit V8. Also, need the location of #1, #2, and so on, left or right from front of engine. Need the rotation direction(clockwise or counterclockwise). Changed cap/rotor and as careful as I tried to be, got 1 out of order fighting that heater hose.

I replaced my distributer cap and plug wires incorrectly. How do I correct the wires for proper firing order.

Note: The donation page will not except a donation.
I tried three times.

Thank you.
