I assume it's a propane hard tire forklift? Pics of the whole machine would help.

I know by looking at those pictures that is a Waukesha engine in it. A lot of times the tag is on the side of the engine a couple of inches up from the oil pan. Hth a little.

I'm thinking 1-2-4-3 for the order #1 plug next to the fan ?
My A-C forklift is diesel......

I wouldn't have guessed it to be a Waukesha but probably a ford motor. If it's Allis or Ford I would go with 1-2-4-3 but if it's Waukesha it could be 1-2-4-3 or 1-3-4-2 depending on the model.
