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
