So no.1 is effectively at the front of the car then?
Is that for all engines? I have a Hayabusa and was pondering exactly this point!
If its broke, fix it. If it aint broke, take it apart and find out how it works!

Dunno bud, havent started it yet! Making up the loom and thats the way the cables sort of fell, which is why I was hoping it was the case that 1 was
at the sprocket end!
If it starts, (which will be a miracle due to the amount of loom mods Ive made!!!), Ill let ya know. Then you can call me a smart ass!!!!

if your engine management runs a wasted spark system then I thought it doesn't matter which cylinder has which spark plug connected to it as
there will always be a spark when the piston is up at the cylinder head
but I stand to be corrected

Correct, for wasted spark on a 4-cylinder it doesn't matter - the engine and it's operation is symmetrical.
