Scott,
I have a different edition of this manual but I found figure 4.1 and it is
misleading. Assuming that your drive dog is set up correctly, the number 1
socket for the number 1 sparkplug wire should point approximately toward the
number 1 spark plug. If the schematic is to be taken literally the numbers
on the distributor cap should be rotated one space counter clockwise so that
the 1 is where the 5 should be.
Just as a sanity test, you should probably check to see where the rotor is
when the number 1 cylinder is in the firing position (TDC with both valves
closed).
HTH,
