    I removed all the plugs and made no attempt to record which wire goes to which cylinders. I also made the mistake of removing all the plastic clips that keep the wires all spaced out and organized.

    Now, I have three wires. They're labeled 1, 3, 5 on the side closer to the ignition coil.

    I want to confirm the layout of the engine.

    Looking at the engine from the front of the truck, the cylinder are:

    REAR OF TRUCK
    5----6
    3----4
    1----2
    FRONT OF TRUCK

    Is this correct?

    If so, I'd also like to make sure the cylinders are paired to fire properly.

    I got 1+6, 3+2, 4+5. Is this correct?
