Help firing order 2.2liter? Options

[bdog_v]

Hello I went to replace my spark plug wires on my 94 celica 2.2 liter and have found a problem between my chilton manual and how my spark plug wires were set up?

-The chilton manual states for 5s-fe engine 4-3-2-1 , now #4 cylinder is on the passenger side in their manual.



-However on my car the #4 cylinder by the passenger side according to the chilton manual, was reversed and on the driver side, so on my car the cylinders went 1-2-3-4 with #4 being on the driver side, the exact opposite of the chilton manual, and the spark plug wires ran to the appropriate number on the distributor cap.


-So is it possible to reverse the wiring and the car will run o.k. or did the chilton manual make a mistake???

-I am doing an overall tuneup on the car and will be doing timing so I, need to know what cylinder to time off of?????


-Has anyone ran into this issue? What is the correct cylinder order??? THanks...

i think you are confusing firing order with the numbers that are on your spark plug wires. firing order, just means the order the spark plugs fire in.... but dont pay any attention to this. just hook up your wires 1234 from left to right. do the same thing when looking at the distributor cap.

if you put the wires in the wrong order, the car will run funny.
