Haynes manual? Haynes will tell you the firing order of the engine and there is bound to be a picture of the dizzy cap in the Haynes book. ------------- Be exclusive and drive a Petrol 5 Series!

Standing at the front of the car looking down at the dizzy cap from left to right the order of the leads on the cap are, 1, 3, ignition coil, 4, 2 This is assuming your car has the M40 engine. -------------
