good info but ther is an easier way.... pop distributor cap off and mark the side of housing where rotor is pointing. put cap back on and trace the wire that lines up with the housing mark to it's plug and note which cylinder..eg number 3...remove distributor and install the new one (it can only go in one way)...rotor will now be pointing to previously marked plug/cylinder...eg number 3...rewire cap counterclockwise 1-3-4-2 using your known marked plug wire as a starting point. Start jeep..set idle to 700rpm...turn distributor until maximum rpm. set idle back down to 700rpm...back distributor off util it drops to 600rpm...tightnen bolt...no need to find TDC#1 or timing mark or use a timing light...about 15 mins.
