You can look at diagrams, but to be sure, pull the connector off at the distributor cap to disconnect power. Pull #1 spark plug, have someone 'bump' over the engine in quick, little bumps until you feel pressure at the spark plug hole. This will be the compression stroke. As soon as you feel pressure, line up the timing mark on TDC. Then, look to see where the rotor is pointing. That will be your starting point. Firing order is 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2, clockwise.
