I bought the Taylor 8mm from Truck Performance. After yanking my stock wires out, it came to be that the Taylor wires are too short. Then I decided to put the stock wires back on so I can take the truck to work. However, when I put them back on and start the truck up, it seems like the engine is misfiring. And also, I hear a knocking. I tried to snuggly fit all the wire boots but still I get the same problem.

Do you guys know how does the sparkplugs wire layout in order?

That's what I'm thinking when I put the wires back together. I could be wrong. If any of you have an idea, please comment. I don't want to miss work :(

Thanks so much all,
Nathan
