| yep, pull the number one spark plug out and roll the engine over until it is at top dead centre (look at the crank notch) and you can feel positive pressure in the cylinder. Remove the dizzy cap and note the direction the dizzy rotor is pointing, put the #1 spark plug lead on there, then you can just work it from the firing order (1,3,4,2) |

| On the crankshaft pulley, there is a notch which marks top dead centre relative to the timing marks... |

i did that on the tractor at work when i was cleaning the plugs, you just put them on in any order then see if it will start, it might start and sound real rough so you use plastic pliers to pull a lead of the plug 1 at a time and if theres a noise change that lead is on the wrong plug.
hope it helps, if ya can understand it
