Hi all, been a while since I posted here. In classic fashion, it's only when I need something..
My car has been under a cover for about 3 months and aside from the mould that's formed in the cabin (separate issue related to a leaky roof I believe), the car has thrown two major codes. One related to it running too rich which I believe I've identified. The other being a misfire in cylinder 4.
I want to go in and swap two of the coil packs to see if the misfire moves with the coils but I cannot figure out which order they're numbered in? From front of bonnet to the windshield, or from windshield to the front?
Thanks all!

From front of the bonnet backwards. No1 nearest the radiator.

Thanks, informative as always mate.
Next question. Can I swap these coil packs around? The wiring seems to suggest you need to swap all 6 at once? The wiring are all colour coded too which is throwing me off. I don't do car electrics!

Never mind. It's been so long since I worked on the Zed I forgot how these things work. Figured it out. Proper idiot moment there...
