I just changed the plugs and wires in my car and now it's running worse than it was before. It runs extremely rough and backfires when you rev it. My SES light started flashing and came on steady now. I'm thinking that I hooked them up in the wrong order, but I'm at a loss because I checked the order over and over again. I installed MSD 8mm wires. That shouldn't be the problem going from 7mm to 8mm should it? The order that I have them installed in on the coil pack front to back are....6.3.2.5.4.1

cylinders right side front to back are 2.6.4
cylinders left side front to back are 1.3.5

someone please help me here...I need my car for tomorrow to go to the get-together in San Jose...I've been looking forward to this for weeks....

 

I FIGURED IT OUT!!! First of all, let's talk about how much of a retard I am. I wrote the cylinder numbers on the wires as I took them off. Well, I switched the #3 and #5 wire on the coil pack when I reinstalled them. Now the car runs great. Thanks anyway...

 

OOOH I was just about to say maybe you switched the #3 and #5 wire.
