The firing order is 1 3 4 2 so look at the dizz from the top, you have the coil in correct so put the others in 1 3 4 2 order left to right Ignore them being on different levels imagine them in a line!

Its just a shame that pictures wrong..

Looking from above with the cap segments pointing to the rear of the engine:

Bottom left = No:2
Bottom Right = No:1
Top left = No:4
Top Right = No:3
Top Center = Coil tower.

She runs clockwise and number 1 on the distributor cap is the inner pickup closest to the throttle position sensor, so imagine from that information that the rotor goes: 1,3,4,2 clockwise and you wont go wrong.
