How are the wires numbered on a dodge ram distributor cap?

Dodge Ram distributor caps don't have a standardized numbering system like 1, 2, 3, 4... The firing order of the cylinders determines the wire placement, and that varies depending on the engine size and year of your Ram.

To find the correct wire placement, you must consult a wiring diagram specific to your vehicle's year, engine, and potentially even trim level. This diagram will show the correct cylinder number for each terminal on the distributor cap.

You can usually find this information in:

* Your owner's manual: This is the first place to look.

* A repair manual specific to your vehicle: Chilton's, Haynes, and factory service manuals are good sources.

* Online automotive repair databases: Sites like AllDataDIY or Mitchell 1 often have detailed diagrams (usually subscription-based).

Without knowing the specific year, engine, and model of your Dodge Ram, it's impossible to provide the correct wire numbering. Attempting to guess could lead to serious engine damage.
