[Shotimes] correct plug wire routing?

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

No, it was from an email from some time ago.

Paul Nimz just sent me a pic with the correct routing.  The diagram that
I looked at had the banks switched on the engine.  1-2-3 is indeed on the
firewall side, not the radiator side.  Whew!

Thanks Paul!
