The distributor ALWAYS 'distributes' the spark in a very mechanical way. For us mortals to understand, the Chevy fire gods teach us that #1 is the basic reference......then #8 fires...then #4 fires....and so on (18436572)
You're ONLY problem right now is locating #1! All the rest will take care of itself.
When I relocated, I moved the entire ring. That is, pull 1, then pull 2, put 1 where 2 was. Move 8 to where 1 was... etc. I have a little tester, I put it inline with #1. I know it gets spark, the little light flashed.
It's pretty confusing to me at this point. I'm at that point where I don't even trust what I know.
