I was cleaning my engine just now, so I took off the spark plug wires(just from the engine, the base is still connected) and then when my engine was all pretty, I go to reconnect the wires to the spark plugs. All of the sudden I just can't remember which wire goes where. Any one can help me?

This is what I think but I'm not sure

This looking down on the engine cylinders (1-4) from left to right

1 2 3 4

This is where the wires connect to from left to right

1a 2a 3a 4a

If my memory is correct 4a-4, 3a-3, 2a-1, 1a-2 ??????

look in the how to section. or do a search for ground wires.. i'm pretty sure there are some pictures of how they are connected.
