the firing order for your 91 crx should be 1, 3, 4 and 2. You need to identify where the rotor points to when cylinder 1 is at top dead center.
Cylinder number 1 is the one closest to the accessory belts (alternator, power steering , etc, hope this helps.
All Honda 4 cylinder engines that I have worked on have a firing order of 1342. That is the firing order on your CRX. #1 is the cylinder closest to the timing belt.
Here is a firing order diagram and note the distributor cap latch positions between terminals 1 and 2 and 5 and 4, and let me know if you need any help to understand this diagram or if you require any further assistance.
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:

To avoid confusion, replace spark plug wires one at a time.

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.

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.

I highly recommend you get the Haynes repair manual on your vehicle. The Haynes Manual has photo references that show the alignment as well as a diagram of the firing order on the Distributor. Typically the #1 is marked on the the Distributor cap and they are sequential clockwise after that. The Firing order is actually controlled by the order you connect the wires to the Distributor.
Cylinder #1 will be the one closes to the fan belts and so on 1-2-3-4, on the distributor cap there should be a # 1 stamped on it, put cylinder # 1 spark plug wire on that one, install spark plug wire in firing order clockwise on the cap, the cap some time's might even have the firing order on it.
