Can someone PLEASE post the plug wire configuration to which coil and what order it goes in. I have had a serious brain fart and might have screwed it up.. I have a 2g eclipse gsx with a 1g head on it.. the coils are set up like a 1g.

Thanks tons..
 
cylinder 1 - 4 left to right?

or is it right to left?
 
Cylinder 1 is the cylinder closest to the cam gears.
 
Okay that's the way i had it.. cylinder 1 and 2 are getting flooded out when i try to start it. 3 and 4 are okay. When i try to start it , it only runs on 3 and 4. If i yank the injector wires on 1 and 2 the car will start on all 4 for about 5 sec then cut out (cause it runs out of fuel), Would a faulty FPR cause this type of issue cause it's closest to 1 and 2?
 
I don't have an OHM meter.. I pulled the plugs and laid them on the valve cover, i get a nice blue spark on all 4 plugs.. Plus the car runs for a sec before it floods out on 1 and 2. It's really strange. I think this is cold start issue.
 
yep that's the way i have it... i think it's my ecu
 
i know this may sound dumb, but for 1990 models their ignition plug is different same as the transistor pack are different, i was wondering since the 90's ignition is of a different shape would it still be in the same order as 4123 when putting the plugs in?
