How to check timing on an RX7

Hey guys, I was just wondering, which is considered the first cylinder on the rx7, in proportion to the spark plugs while looking down from the drivers side?

you should buy a factory service manual if you plan on working on your car... each plug has an L or T next to it... L=leading... this would be the one you are looking for

Haynes manual and factory service manual will describe the procedures. The factory service manual is linked in the FAQ.
