i dont know much about the ford stuff so i figured i would ask before i went ahead with the job.

i was just getting ready to go out and do a tuneup on my 92 5.0 bronco and i noticed something that didnt look right.

the spark plug wires are on the correct terminals on the distributer cap but the #1 termial is not where it should be according to diagrams im looking at. the diagrams im looking show that from the front of the truck #1 should roughly be at 1 o'clock but where it is is actually about 10 to 11 o'clock. should i just remove the wires and put the new cap and rotor back on the way i took it off or should i rotate the distributer back to where it should be?
