An easier way than what you're going to try is to find TDC (use the link), remove the cap and the rotor will point to #l.

alright I have elliminated 4 of 8 possibilities, will what I am doing,...."going around the cap rewiring one hole over at a time" get the truck started again whn I find #1????

I haven't been able to get the thing to even turn over yet just the clicking several times when the key is turned. is this normal?

Since I dont feel like I have a good enough understanding of how the cap and rotor work, and I am fearful of screwing something else up, and knowing my luck this feels like the safest think for me to do and the most logical with the limited understanding I have with a cap and rotor system.
