Hi,
Isuzu seem to have complicated things by changing engines, firing orders and even direction of rotation! As you can see, they've numbered the cylinders the other way than the 3.2L.

The Firing sequence for the 3.1 (traditional distributor) 6 cylinder is as follows -

If you take the distributor cap off, there should be a "No.1" formed on the inside. Stick a lead on this before you put the cap back on and go from there.
As leads are different lengths, you may have to swap a few to find the best fit.

I think 2 of them will look out of place - but that's the way it's designed. Just make use of clips for holding them neatly.

Thanks for using Fixya.

ISUZU GIGA Engine knocking
Engine knocking usually cause by wrong connection of Spark plug wire sometimes called High Tension Wire. Check the manual and make sure the firing sequence of wire connection is properly connected to the distributor cap according to the manual. Ex is: 1-4-3-2 for 4 cyl engine.
For 6 cyl engine, 1-6-5-4-3-2 or 1-6-2-5-3-4. when in doubt, ask mechanic help. If wires firing sequence are correct, then you have to check the camshaft bearing or camshaft itself. Hope this help.

Timing issue with LT1 engine
Sounds as if your 180 out with your distributor. Bring #1 cylinder to TDC and see if the rotor is pointing at the correct plug on the cap. If it is not, then your timing is off.

How do we connect Isuzu rodeo 3.2L plug wire
FIRING ORDERS NOTE: To avoid confusion, remove and tag the spark plug wires one at a time, for replacement. If a distributor is not keyed for installation with only one orientation, it could have been removed previously and rewired. The resultant wiring would hold the correct firing order, but could change the relative placement of the plug towers in relation to the engine. For this reason it is imperative that you label all wires before disconnecting any of them. Also, before removal, compare the current wiring with the accompanying illustrations. If the current wiring does not match, make notes in your book to reflect how your engine is wired. Fig. 1: 1.8L, 2.0L and 2.3L engines Firing Order: 1–3–4–2 Distributor Rotation: Counterclockwise 86862g37.gif
Fig. 2: 2.6L and 2.8L engines Firing Order: 1–3–4–2 Distributor Rotation: Clockwise 86862g39.gif

Isuzu Rodeo w/3.1L engine
Front Passenger side on cap is 1 - if you look on the inside of your cap there SHOULD be a pin marked with a 1, and the plugs go CLOCKWISE not counter. Just had the same problem myself with my 91 Rodeo. Cylinders are as follows Passenger side (front to back) 1 - 3 - 5, Driver side (front to back) 2 - 4 - 6. I called the Isuzu dealer and they told me it was counter clockwise, but when I hooked it up that way it backfired through the Carb.
