Carrera Flywheel Sensors - Which is top and bottom?

I lost track when replacing the sensors which goes in which sensor plug in the engine compartment. In a 1985 Carrera, does it matter which plug goes the the upper and which gpes to the lower sensor on the flywheel? I imagine they are picking up different timing marks, or have an offset programmed so want to get them plugged in right the first time..
Thanks

Stock, the top one on the flywheel bracket goes to the lower one on the engine bracket.

Sensor orientation.......

This is the trick I use to remember the orientation of these sensors by using the alphabet (RST).

@ transmission side bracket:
R (reference) upper
S (speed) lower

@ cylinder head #3:
T (temperature)

Now, for the different connectors by the fuel rail:
Flip over the R/S/T orientation to T/S/R. The speed sensor (DG) remains unchanged and always at the middle.

Just remember your ABC...to.....RST.
