Firing Order

Ok people

I am slightly confused. I changed the plugs and leads on my series 1 discovery last night and i did it one by one as you should to avoid getting wires mixed up.

Now having said that i still think i may have screwed it up somewhat. Does anyone have a diagram showing the firing order. I can t find it in my Haynes manual i must be missing something.

For referance its a 3.9 FXi

Many Thanks

if you did it one-by-one, how could you have got it wrong?
what type of plugs did you fit?

wot he sed

I have fitted champion plugs that i got from the dealer.....

Basically what i need is a digram that shows the correct order basically so i can double check what i have done and be sure that its correct...

basically champions arn't basically always basically good.
i've put champions in a few times and basically about have of a few times i've basically had to reinstall the old ones.
so basically i'd say swap yer plugs

morning Slob - thats a bit basic int it?

basically slob's a basically basic guy

basically yer right, but if yer basically just swapped yer leads one for one then basically it can't be the firing order? unless yer can't do basic counting. and basically as champion plugs int basically reliable even when noo its basically point to yer plugs....basically

morning daft

and have yer checked yer heinze manwell, first page of chapter four . well thats basically where the firing order normally is.
chapter 4 ignition

basically, champion plugs is no good.
basically fit basic NGK ones.

he's not convinced , is he?

if he's done the plug leads one fer one and it was ok before hand
if he now has a problem then it must be either leads or plugs
champion are known fer being rubbish, its a lottery whether new champions work or not.

wo..oh fook it he can fart about with his firing order then after he's pulled all his hair out he can fook orf and buy decent plugs
