t2 rear rotor, top plug

L1 front rotor, top plug

T = trailing

L= leading



I remember it this way T= top ---- L= lower



T1 - goes to top front plug

T2 - goes to top rear plug\



L1 - goes to bottom front plug

L2 - goes to bottom rear plug





On the coil packs there is a designation T for trailing and L for leading. There is usually a white dot on the plug wire terminal on the coil indicating #1 or front rotor.
