Factory service manual will not only include the diagram you need, but countless other procedures and diagrams you can and prob will need... Plus its got cool pictures, and most are quite "vintage" in appearance, which makes a good coffee table piece!

EBay, or possibly you can find a link to your specific model for an online version if you prefer....

Just make sure to get the service manual that covers your exact model....

Oh, and welcome to the site!!!

Is it possible the plug is fouled on the cylinder you removed the woire from? Or was it an electrical wire and not the actual plug wire?

Check your valve clearances. They're often neglected and can cost a bundle if left for too long.
