I am changing the spark plugs and plug wires and something is crossed and I need the firing order so that I can put them in the correct place so the truck will run

See Figures 1 and 2
To avoid confusion, remove and tag the spark plug wires one at a time, for replacement.
If a distributor is not keyed for installation with only one orientation, it could have been removed previously and rewired. The resultant wiring would hold the correct firing order, but could change the relative placement of the plug towers in relation to the engine. For this reason it is imperative that you label all wires before disconnecting any of them. Also, before removal, compare the current wiring with the accompanying illustrations. If the current wiring does not match, make notes to reflect how your engine is wired.

the tuck is a 4wd engine size is 3.4
So are you telling me that #1 hooks to #2, #3 hooks to #4, #5 hooks to #6? I am sorry I am a girl who has never done this before and I thought that I replaced them in th correct order as I took them off. Thanks for your help
The color on the cap should go to the color of where the plug is.
2wd or 4wd... and what size engine?? 2.4 2.7 or 3.4??
