Hold everything!--disregard those last questions. It turns out that although this car is a '93 16 Valve (it's right there on the engine and also on the tailgate) it seems to have a 4-pin DLC rather than a 6-pin DLC (see attached pics).
So, for the 4-pin, the jump for Diagnosis is B-D, and for timing it is C-D. Correct?
And the #1 spark plug is the one closest to the front?
Thanks.
Now you've got me thinking about that '97. I'm going to check it out this weekend if it's still there. You mentioned the DLC location on the 97--is that something I might want to check before buying?
If you don't mind, what kind of gas mileage does that car really get?

BTW, just saw a 97 Sidekick on craigslist with 67k original miles (allegedly) Basic 4dr model with no AC or any extras for just under $2,600 (the blue book).
OK, to review--for Diagnostic on the DLC, connect the #4 to the #2
Then for the timing, connect #4 with #5. Correct?
And the number one spark plug is the one closest to the front of the car?
