How do you find the firing order for installing ignition wires on a 1995 Saab V6 3.0L?

1. Find the distributor cap. The distributor cap is located on the front of the engine, near the top. It is a round, black plastic cap with a number of wires coming out of it.

2. Remove the distributor cap. To remove the distributor cap, simply turn it counterclockwise until it comes off. Be careful not to drop any of the wires.

3. Locate the firing order markings. The firing order markings are located on the inside of the distributor cap. They are usually indicated by a series of numbers, starting with 1.

4. Follow the firing order markings to install the ignition wires. Start by installing the wire for cylinder 1. This wire should go to the terminal on the distributor cap that is marked with the number 1. Then, continue installing the wires for cylinders 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, in order.

5. Replace the distributor cap. Once all of the ignition wires are installed, replace the distributor cap. Turn it clockwise until it clicks into place.
