    M20 Spark Plug Diagram???

    Im just did the timing belt, not really I was going to change it but then reversed my desicion put everythin gback together with a new cooling system. My car wont start and is front fireing.

    Ive been researching and they say a common error is the spark plug wires getting mixed up. I know for a fact I plugged them all into the distributor randomly. Is there any map or something that will show me which one goes were??

          WTF?! Don't do that. Definitely straighten out the firing order before you do anything else.
