When replacing the electrical coils, I managed mix up the wiring. I need to know the squeeze of numbers.

Hi,

I attached two pics below. The first is of the coil. Note that on the top of the coils, it indicates which cylinder that specific wire goes to. The second pic shows location of each cylinder.. Match the coil wire to the cylinder that matches what is on the coil packs.

Let me know if this helps.
