Engine Mechanical problem
1982 Ford Bronco 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Manual

The engine will turn and sometimes acts like it wants to start, it also sometimes backfires while it is turning over. I pulled the spark plugs out one at a time to clear them out and a couple popped out a white/grey smoke. Is this because the wires are put on incorrectly? Or bad? If possible, can I get a spark plug diagram on where each wire goes?

Yes firing order is the same, but I think the timing marks might be different, you can compare.
