Firing Order\Cylinder Order (1979 GS550E)

[Anonymous]

Just got the plugs sparking 8), now all I need to do is find out the order that the cylinders fire. From left to right, 1234? I dont remember, and never saw it online. The wires are marked, I just dont know what cylinder is what. Im sure one of you can help me out. Thanks!

The cylinders are L-R 1/2/3/4 Firing order is 1/2/4/3 The left side points as you face the assembly should be for the 1-4 points.Set your point gap at .012-.016.Use .014 for old points and .016 for new points.The coil on the left side of frame as you sit is for cyl's 1-4 and the other is 2-3.It doesn't make any difference if you reverse the wires on the same coil as long as they go to 1-4 and 2-3.
