Hi,
I've got the page open. It may be a schematic, but no.1 cylinder is no.1
cylinder and can only ever be in the front, at the firewall. Think about it,
if anyone suggested that no.6 cylinder could ever have no.1 plug he'd not
sell many more books? (And Haynes sold lots and lots and lots of books!).

Here's something I filed some time back. Per Roger Moment:-
"Starting at the high tension lead from the coil, and going CLOCKWISE, the
hole just to the right is for the #6, the lower hole is for #3, the next
lower hole to the left is for #5, the next lower hole to the left is for #1,
the last lower hole to the left is for #4, and the other upper hole, just to
the left of the coil lead is for #2.  
The firing order for a "6" is :  1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 4
If you look down at the cap and progress COUNTERCLOCKWISE starting with any
of the wire numbers I identified, you will see that the sequence is
correct."
Just thought that might help if you're kicking ideas around in that area.
Simon

Anyone have this book? I have my tranny back in and I am trying to start my
BN7 to no avail. Is spark plug 1 at the front of the engine in this diagram
or
at the firewall? Looks like front but I need to be 100% sure.

Many thanks,
