First, do not remove the plug wires. The distributor cap will either be held in place with snap clamps or with 2 screws. If clamps just use a flat blade screwdriver to pry them loose. If screws then unscrew the screws by turning counterclockwise. Once you have the cap off remove the wires one at a time and transfer to the new cap connecting them to the exact same location on the new cap. Do them one at a time as to not get them mixed up. Replace the cap exactly as the old cap was orientated. I would also recommend you replace the rotor at the same time.

What order do you put new spark plug leads back in?

There is no specific order that you have to follow to replace the spark plug wires. My advice is to replace each wire one at a time in order to not get confused which is easy to do. Just remove one wire, get a new wire the same length and replace that wire. Then move to the next wire.

Is there a credible website to get free legal advice online?

"There are many websites that provide legal advice on a variety of topics. Many law firms operate forums or sites that will provide general advice on specific topics, but most will quickly point out that for specific information, you should get a direct consultation. There are also many public forums run by individuals looking to share their experience. However, any information provided by any of these sites may not be applicable to your specific situation, as most laws have many subtle nuances based on specific situations and the results of previous cases that have gone before the courts. While online research can help you to focus your efforts, they don't replace the knowledge and experience of a qualified legal practitioner."
