Question Firing Order????

I recently changed my Ignition wires and Spark Plugs... YESTERDAY!

Some how I managed to change the 1st, and 2nd with "No Problemo"
then something got into me I disconnected 3, and 4 from the distributor at the same time... "NO!!!!" I say, cause now im mixed up. So I put the wires back to what I thought was right. Now my shit is shaking horribly must be that I mixed up 3, and 4. If you guys have any suggestions please tell me or if you have done the same thing by mistake what would happen if I did switch by mistake. Thanks

NGK

well im not retarded and take my wires out all at the same time so I cant tell you what to do in experience

so my suggestion would be to switch the 3rd and 4th wire and see if it fixes it.

Unless you totally fucked something else up.

(can I say the "f-word" on af??)

Thanks for the help guys, and "girl" but I think im just going to switch the 3rd, and 4th... hopefully it will fix the shit. Cause I gapped the spark plugs right bought some pretty good Ignition wires... But that is besides the point, it should have ran fine when I put the regular sparks back in the first time after it starting bogging.

Smile PROBLEM SOLVED :)

Its all fixed guys, but thanks for the help. It turns out that I switched the 2nd, and 3rd ignition wires by accident so I just went outside and swithced the 3rd and 4th... but nothing it didnt even start. So I said "Hmmm" so I switched the 2nd and 3rd, and PRESTO my shit is running stronger than ever. Those NGK SPARKS hit really hard.
