    Post VR Calais

    heyy guys,

    did a service on my car the other day, cahnged spark plugs and then went to start it and it was misfiring, im pretty sure i put the leads on the right way.

    i thought i may have damaged a lead when i took it off so bought a new set but the problem still occured. i tried putting the old spark plugs back in but did not fix.

    Does anyone have a picture of where each cylinder is on the motor and number, plus where they go to on the coil pack..

    any help would be appreciated..

    thanks
