Accel HEI Distributor plug wiring

[ck5566]

I guess I didn't pay attention as to how the Distributor was wired be for I pulled it. Me being from the old school (me now 64) 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 is a no brainier, right

Here is my question see drawing, I will insert a pic/drawing as what I now know as what is on the dist. with pieces of Tape #erd 1 and Tape #erd 6 and Tape #erd 7 these all have a circle around the #'s on drawing. ** IS this cap a "CORRECTED CAP" or maybe did the PO past owner not set crank gear where it should be in its proper place. This being see my drawing to see where # 1 is its at about 8 o'clock, in my days we set #1 at about 11 o'clock or close to that.

Last question, is where the three wires come from the Dist and go over to where it plugs into the Super Coil C- GRD B+ on my wiring plug they are C- is a lt brown , GRD is ether dark green or black, and the B+ is a red'esh dark brown, is that right or does it need to be turned/ flipped around.

Thanks in advance/ Moochas Grass e a$$

I thought that the way the dist had tape with # markings in the sequence that they were in that it might be needed to wire it in a particular way for the firing order. In that thinking I was wrong. I just used the #1 taped posision for # 1 and install all wires in the firing order 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 and Bam it fired right up.

Thread dead. thanks V V
