Hi Guys,
Bit of a silly question!
What is the firing order, and ignition timing on an early 90's Nissan Sentra 1300?
I don't know your engine but every one with which I am familiar has the firing order cast right into the block. Use a good light and check both sides of it.
If it is the same series engine, the firing order will be identical.
Every inline 4 I have owned (there have been a few) was 1-3-4-2 and #1 has always been at the crankshaft-pulley end.
Check if your local library has a Haynes or Chilton service manual in inventory; check it out and steal some basic data from it or buy one for $20-$30 (often less on eBay), keep it dry and in your car in case you have problems while traveling.
Each of our three cars has its own and I consider it insurance against mechanics that like to BS out-of-town customers.

Tried this, cant find it. Isn't there a standard firing order for four cylinder vehicles?
Alternately, would the firing order for a 1990 Pulsar be the same, since they probably used the same motor?
