whoa,i was looking at my plugs.... what is the firing order on the stangs? becuase my cap... listen to this, one and two are right next to each other going clockwise, that doesnt sound right to me at all!! My dad said it wasnt steam blowing out of the back pipe, either oil or gas, smelled like gas... i need to know the firing order on teh distributor becuase i think someone screwed it up...

If it is a stock/regular cap and not one of those trick units(helps straighten/clean up the wires) then yes #2 should be between #7 and #6
