I replaced the distributor cap and rotor over the weekend and apparently
they were the wrong size. I put the old cap back on and the van would not
start. I bought a new cap and rotor that are the correct size and now it's
sputtering a little but not starting.

The first thing I want to check is the wire order (don't laugh, it's been
awhile). I'm not 100% sure I did not cross 2 of the wires. I cannot find a
wiring diagram in any of the books. Can someone either pmail or cc me the
wiring order from the plugs to the cap?

How embarrassing.

Thanks,
Bryan
