The firing order for a 1979 Chevy El Camino's distributor cap depends on the engine. There were several engine options available that year. You
must know the engine size (e.g., 305 cubic inch small-block, 350 cubic inch small-block, 400 cubic inch small-block) to determine the correct firing order.
Once you know the engine size, you can find the firing order in a repair manual specific to that year and engine, or online through a reputable automotive resource. The firing order is usually printed on a sticker under the hood or on the air cleaner.
