Okay. So I ran a CEL reader and it says my car is misfiring? When the car is running okay? The idling is not rough but it boggles a bit but nothing major. I'm thinking it's idling like that because of dirty TB. What I have my spark plug firing order set up is;

FACING THE ENGINE Cylinders: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4

FACING THE DISTRIBUTOR CLOCK WISE: 1 - 2 - 4 -3
COUNTER CLOCKWISE: 1 - 3 - 4 - 2

Can someone let me know if I have the correct firing order? I just want to double check. I searched online and they all said 1 - 3 - 4 - 2. I'm pretty sure how you read it is starting from the bottom left of the distributor going counter clockwise. Right? That's how I read it.

As you can see from that diagram, you dont need to know the firing order. You just need to match up the numbers on the distributor with cylinders 1,2,3,4 from left to right. If you match up the plug wire that says 3 to the second cylinder, you will have problems.
