Firing order for hyster s50xm

I took all my plugs off my motor and distributer. I marked the distributer and cylinders with a pen but washed them with engine cleaner not thinking. Whoops. Anyone have a diagram? It's a gm 3.0 ser# d187v23034y

"it's not rocket surgery"
I beg to differ ed. The Clark c500 series lifts with the waukashaw engine had a strange firing order- 1-2-4-3. It's the only 4 cyl engine that I know of with that order.

Customers love technology- until they have to pay to fix it!
in fact, all 4 cyl inline engines that count from the water pump end towards the flywheel end will be 1-3-4-2

GM 3.0 is a 4 cyl- correct- then it would be 1-3-4-2.
