Tap lightly on dist. not on cap while someone cranks motor,be careful of moving parts,if it starts change ign. module in dist. if not check cap rotor,coil and power to ign.module,if theres power to module my bet would be on ign. mod

Tip: The max point reward for answering a question is 15.
my guess, is you removed them and didnt mark them?
the firing order?
what engine, there are 5.
to do this , one need to know 5 things.
2.5L, 2.8L, 4.0L and 5.2/5.9L engine displacements.
the distributor rotation direction CCW, or CW
and last the firing order, sometimes marked clearly on the intake manifold.
you must now where #1 cylinder is (always most front)
1989-98 2.5L Engine firing order: 1-3-4-2 Distributor rotation: Clockwise
2.8L Engine firing order: 1-2-3-4-5-6 Distributor rotation: Clockwise
4.0L Engine firing order: 1-5-3-6-2-4 Distributor rotation: Clockwise
5.2L and 5.9L Engine firing order: 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 Distributor rotation: Clockwise
on a v6/v8 one cylinder is more forward. this is #1, look carefully.
FIRING ORDERS NOTE: To avoid confusion, remove and tag the wires one at a time, for replacement.

I do not have a breakdown diagram for a distributor, but just the firing orders and description of ignition system for the Dodge Colt and related models (based on Chilton manuals) if that's what you're looking for:

Distributor REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
Although the distributor can be removed from the engine no matter which cylinder is about to fire, it is a good idea to have number one cylinder at TDC before distributor removal.
1.5L, 1.8L, 2.4L SOHC Engines
Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Disconnect and tag the spark plug wires from the distributor cap.
Disconnect the distributor harness connector.

Fig. 4: Ignition system for the 2.4L engine
Loosen the distributor retaining bolt and remove the distributor from the engine.
To install:
Rotate the engine until No. 1 cylinder is at TDC on its compression stroke.
NOTE: Be careful not to turn it to the No. 4 cylinder TDC on its compression stroke by mistake.
Align the distributor housing and gear mating marks.

Install the distributor into the engine, while aligning the fine cut (groove or projection) on the distributor flange with the center of the distributor mounting stud.
Install and tighten the distributor retaining bolt.
Reconnect the distributor harness connector.

If a distributor is not keyed for installation with only one orientation, it could have been removed previously and rewired. The resultant wiring would hold the correct firing order, but could change the relative placement of the plug towers in relation to the engine. For this reason it is imperative that you label all wires before disconnecting any of them. Also, before removal, compare the current wiring with the accompanying illustrations. If the current wiring does not match, make notes in your book to reflect how your engine is wired.

991 Chevy S10 firing order
The firing order for a Chevy s10 depends on which engine you have.
1.9L engine the firing order is: 1-3-4-2 . Distributor rotates counterclockwise.
2.0L engine the firing order is: 1-3-4-2 . Distributor rotates clockwise.
2.5L engine the firing order is: 1-3-4-2 . Distributor rotates clockwise.
2.8L engine the firing order is: 1-2-3-4-5-6 . Distributor rotates clockwise.
4.3L engine the firing order is: 1-6-5-4-3-2 . Distributor rotates clockwise.
To avoid confusion, ALWAYS replace spark plug wires one at a time.
The most important thing to remember about the removal and
installation of a distributor, cap or spark plug cable is that all
wires MUST be labelled before they are disconnected. Keep in mind that
these figures depict a firing order where the distributor cap terminals
are relative to EACH OTHER only and they do not necessarily depict the
tower positions in relation to the rest of the engine. This is true
because any distributor which has been removed and reinstalled may have
been installed with the No. 1 spark plug tower at any position (360
degrees) in relation to the rest of the motor, as long as the rotor
aligned to the No. 1 tower when the No. 1 cylinder was at TDC of the
compression stroke (valves closed, ready for the plug to fire). As long
as the remaining wires were connected in the correct firing order
sequence (depending on direction of distributor rotation) the engine
will run. DO NOT EVER remove more than one wire from the distributor
cap at a time unless you tag ALL wires and towers to assure proper
installation.

my geo tracker wont start there is fuel and spark
