Ignition misfire

[Peterk]

I decided to install new wires and plugs today ... all plugs gapped at .054 ... did one at a time so as not to screw up the wiring. Fired up and got a misfire on 6 and 7 cylinders. Sad thing is, it was running fine, but the wires were original and I wanted to check the plugs .. Could someone give me the firing order from the coils ? I tried a limited search and only found the order at the plugs for a 2001 LS .. want to make sure it's the same Any help would be appreciated.. by the way .. 96 ... and , yes, after buttoning up ( the air intake to the TB was nasty )..then starting and feeling the rough idle .. I gave out a nice loud WTF ? !

Thank you very much ... I just put the old wires back on .. everything fine .. Motorcraft at that ! Will order some new and change 'em again. The new wires didn't "snap" on the coil like the original and the metal tips were loose ...
