The firing order should be exactly the same on all of your turbo DSM's Spy. One of them may have been put on incorrectly prior to your ownership (I would wager on the blue bastage). The firing order from the front of the coil to the back should be 4-1-2-3.
In reality 4 and 1 are paired up on the same coil as are 2 and 3. So as long as you have 4 and one on the front coil and 2 and 3 on the rear coil you should be ok. BTW - The exhaust from that thing stinks. I'm not sure it's from mis-firing, may be bad gas in there too. -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo

surprised that the headgasket wasnt pressurizing your cooling system and making it run really hot. I need your guys help finding a vaccum leak i might have.
Basically when i start teh car cold and tap the gas the car wants to bog just a bit, but it will go away as soon as the needle starts to lift off of the "cold" measurement -------------------- 1990 Nissan 300ZX T

Make it 5... just did the compression test. Cylinders 1 and 4 are 130+. 2 and 3 are 0. I just hope the head ain't warped....
