    ey guys changed over my ignition leads today, but car is not starting now. Im guessing the leads are in the wrong jacks? is there a diagram of some sort to indicate which go were.. also out side of car it smells of fuel when trying to start.

    It's possible that you

    a) knocked a wire out of the coil
    2) unplugged the HES
    c) have it wired up all silly
    iv) havn't put something else back where it belongs

    The correct firing order is: 1-2-7-8-4-5-6-3

    The top right plug on the dizzy cap should be #1, and you can work around from there. The cylinder numbers are cast into your inlet manifold behind the injectors.

    yeh It seems the firing order was wrong, 3 plugs were wrong, but finally hit the jackpot lol :p

    car seems a lot more responsive now since plug change.. im a happy camper
