my father passed away a few years ago and left his jeep in the garage. it doesnt run. it turns over but wont start. i am getting fuel and air so my next area to look is spark. he put a 4.3L from a '93 chevy blazer into it. it has a tbi but i dont know if that came with the engine or not. i have searched the internet and found some websites for other year engines. but i would like to know for that specific year where the spark plug wires go. basically what terminal on the distributor attaches to what spark plug. thank you for your time. Josh.

Hello, I came across the above picture. I'm not sure I trust pictures? You can put the number one cylinder on tdc of compression stroke, then whichever coil tower the rotor is pointing at or leading into, is the number 1 tower, you can see the firing order and direction of rotation on the cap. Did this vehicle run after the engine change-over?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

Not a problem. Here is the firing order:

IGNITION FIRING ORDER
Firing Order .................... 1-6-5-4-3-2

The attached picture shows cylinder location.

Picture 2 shows wire routing and if you look at the distributor, it indicates which wire goes to each cylinder.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe

Welcome back:

No, that shouldn't cause a problem. Most times, it is either a fuel or ignition spark related issue. You need to check to see if you have both. If you do, then we need to look at timing.
Take a look through this link:

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/car-cranks-but-wont-start

If you want to check the two things I suggested, here are links to guide you:

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-check-fuel-system-pressure-and-regulator

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-test-an-ignition-system

____________________________________________________________________

Here are the specific directions for testing fuel pressure. The attached pictures correlate with the directions.

CHECKING FUEL PUMP DELIVERY PRESSURE
13 31 029 - Checking fuel pump delivery pressure (N52)


pic 1


Special tools required:
- 13 5 220
- 13 5 221
- 13 5 222


pic 2


Important!
The fuel in the fuel lines is under pressure (approx. 5 bar)!

Catch and dispose of escaping fuel.


pic 3


Necessary preliminary tasks:
- Switch off ignition.
- Remove acoustic cover See: Engine > Removal and Replacement > 11 00 ... Removing and Installing/Replacing Acoustic Cover


pic 4

Remove dust cap (1).


pic 5

Connect special tool kit 13 5 220 (comprising 13 5 221 and 13 5 222) to pressure sensor of DIS Tester.

Connect pressure sensor to DIS Tester.


pic 6


Important!
Do not under any circumstances screw in the check valve up to the mechanical stop.

This could damage the valve in the pressure regulator housing.

pic 7


Mount special tool kit 13 5 220 to injection tube and tighten knurled nut hand-tight.

Screw out check valve (1) so that valve in pressure regulator housing is closed.

Start engine.

Screw in check valve (1) until a pressure reading is indicated on DIS Tester.


pic 8

Measuring fuel pressure.

- Select Measurement.
- Multimeter function appears
- Select Pressure test
- Read off value of fuel pressure.
Compare actual value of test pressure with specified value .

Switch off engine.


pic 8

Note:
Removing special tool kit 13 5 220:

- Switch off engine
- Screw out check valve fully again.
- Remove special tool kit 13 5 220 from pressure regulator housing.
- Catch and dispose of escaping fuel.


pic 8


Note:
Read out fault memory of DME control unit.

Check stored fault messages.

Now clear the fault memory.

____________________________________________

I just realized this is for a different vehicle. If you have further questions related to it, I need you to start a new thread. We are trying to keep them specific to one car and problem so it helps others. I'm sorry about that.

Regardless, in the next thread you start, make sure to indicate if you checked these things and what was found.

Take care,
Joe

remember # one's position on the distributor cap may vary depending on how you install the distributor

Wherever #1 winds up---that is the starting point for the sequence
