Pointed to #1 cylinder physically or the #1 spark plug wire in relation to the contact on the cap? The wire is what you're after and you must make sure you're at TDC on #1 cylinder on the compression stroke, to check you can remove the spark plug and have someone turn it over by hand while you put you finger over the plug hole (you're looking for ot to push your finger away) or you can take the valve cover off that bank and make sure both valves on #1 are closed (you shoild be able to spin both pushrods with relative ease)
