What is the coil pack placement and firing order on a 1987 Pontiac Fiero 2.5L engine?

The 1987 Pontiac Fiero 2.5L engine (the Iron Duke) uses a distributor, not individual coil packs. Therefore, there's no coil pack placement or firing order in the same way a modern engine with coil-on-plug ignition would have.

The distributor houses the ignition coil and distributor cap which directs the high voltage to the spark plug wires in a specific firing order.

The firing order for the 1987 Pontiac Fiero 2.5L Iron Duke engine is 1-3-4-2. The number corresponds to the cylinder number.

To determine the spark plug wire placement on the distributor cap, you'll need to consult a repair manual or a diagram specific to that year and engine. The rotor in the distributor will indicate the firing order sequence as it rotates. The order of the wires on the cap should match the firing order.
