Hello again,

Okay,

Unfortunately, we do not have your vehicle in our reference material. We generally only have vehicle's that are sold in the U.S. market, and a few from Canada. I looked to see if I could locate a Hyundai model with a 1.8L engine to give you that firing order, because they would be the same engine, but I can't seem to even find that in our reference guide. Usually, though, on a Hyundai 4 cylinder engine the firing order will be 1-3-4-2.

Thanks,
Alex

The engine is running okay. I will upload a video later. Here I attach a pic with the old cable arrangement.

Now my car is running better despite the 200,000 km.
