As pookie says, the cylinder numbers are moulded onto the black distributor cap cover.

I didn't realise this until I did my cap/leads a few months ago - another golden Volvo touch

All great unless someone has put a copy dizzy cap on, there are no numbers on mine.

You'd know if you got it wrong, it either wouldn't start or would run like crap because at least two cylinders wouldn't be firing.

ive already fitted my cap, and yes it is a copy, think me leads are correct, it just sounds like its missing when you rev it to 1000revs (have cleaned the idle thing out aswell as replaced the plugs, would the pcv system cause this kind of problem as i know that needs changing.
