That is correct, trailing on top leading on bottom.

use an ohmmeter and check the resistance of the coil(s), over 1 ohm means the coil is bad and needs replaced



Assuming the coils are in good condition you should next check the ignitors. Unless you have an igniter checker you will have to do it the old-fashioned way which can get you shocked, the following is at your own risk.



Hold the plug with an insulated tool and keep it close to a grounded out source in the e-bay while someone bumps the key for you, do one plug at a time and, if the car should turn over and run, shut it down immediately.

i wouldnt start with the injectors those are the most expensive thing to replace. you can test the resistance on the injectors before getting new ones to see if theyre bad.



if theres no fuel id start at the back and work your way forward, that means fuel pump, then filter, then pressure regulator, then maybe pulsation damper, then injectors.





does your car have a gas cap on it?

That thing you remove, before you put petrol/gas in your tank.
