Default Ignition leads
I pulled my leads off when changing my plugs and forgot to check which lead went with which plug location.

Can someone please tell me which lead goes where.

Thanks in advance
Daniel

That makes sense, but which lead goes to the top plug and which lead goes to the bottom plug on each rotor?

Blue ones go on top, black ones go on bottom. Assuming you didn't change your wires. If you did, then standing on the driver (US) side of the car, looking into the bay you will see two wires coming from the left, and two wires coming from the right. The one on the left, from the left goes into the top left plug. the one on the left from the right goes on the bottom left plug, yatta yatta.

Ok, I put the leads back on and my car won't start.
The leads from the left box on the top plugs and the leads from the right go on the bottom??

OK, Leading side coil is located in front of the car and trailing side coil is toward firewall.

When you removed the plug wire did you pulled it off by pulling boot?

When you attempt to start the car, does it make clicking noise?

Check grounds. make sure plug are all the way in, and yes the ones from the front go on top. the ones from the firewall area go on the bottom.
