Default I made the dumbest mistake today!
I changed out my plugs, wires, cap and rotor today. The only thing is that I totally forgot to mark on the distributor cap what wire goes where. I have the chilton's manual for the accord, and it shows a picture of where they are supposed to go (or so I thought) and now my car won't start. Is there a way that I can figure out which wire goes where? I have a 99 2.2L 4cyl.

Here's the firing order in case it's not right in the Chilton's guide.

There is usually an arrow or something pointing to the point that is number 1 on the cap. And the firing order is 1342
