If you look at the top of the coils,each coil is numbered for its corresponding cylinder,Cylinders #1#3 #5 are in the front (radiator side),Cylinders #4#5#6 are at the firewall side.Cylinder #1 will be the one closest to the pulleys(belt).

Firing Order .................... 1-6-5-4-3-2


Check out the images (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed. Good Luck,Lou
