Hello, I removed the six spark plugs from the 6 cylinders; now waiting for the new ones to arrive in the mail; I think I lined the plug wires up correctly (I think) but I could not find a diagram in the manual or on the web. I was hoping someone out there can help. My motor has 6 coils in two groups lined up vertically on the right side of the power head each coil on the first group is numbered 1, 2, 3 second group numbered again 1, 2, 3. The Cylinder is numbered as well vertically from top to bottom 1,2,3,4,5,6. Can anyone confirm the correct order? Much appreciated! Scott

The coils are wired such that they line up with the cyl's, from the top down 1 - 6
