[Shotimes] correct plug wire routing?

[Mike.Wojton@us.o-i.com]

I had this saved from an email a while ago.  Is this correct?

Engine

firewall

4 - 5 - 6
1 - 2 - 3

radiator

---------------------------

Coil pack

throttle body

5 - 1
6 - 2
4 - 3

radiator

If so, my car is wired wrong.  I was attempting to replace plug wires
yesterday.  To make a long story short, I only managed to get the front
3 changed. (damn hex cam cover bolts)  I have issues now with a sort of
knocking sound.  It's not the chain noise, this is louder.  And didn't do 
it
before I worked on it.  I first thought I messed up wire routing.  The
4-6-5 on the coil didn't make sense to me, even though I replaced them
one at a time.  I didn't have anything at home to check routing from.
When I got here to work I looked this up and was surprised as heck.
My 1-2-3 on the coil pack (on the right side) go to the BACK of the
engine.  4-6-5 go to the front.

Would the engine even run this way?!  I wouldn't think so, but maybe it
would.  The car ran ok before I did anything, although it was missing
a little from oil in the wells.  I'm replacing seals too.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
