2WD or 4WD? 4 or 6 cylinder?

On the 5vzfe engine (V6), are you asking about the Ignitor or Coil on Plug? What is the problem that points you to replacing this part?

On the 5vzfe engine (V6), the COP is easily removed by loosening the 10mm bolt located on the top of the COP. Disconnect the spark plug wire going to the left side of the engine and then the signal harness connector. The COP should easily pull up out of the spark plug tube. If it doesn't, you might need to twist the COP left/right to break it free from the spark plug.

On the 5vzfe engine (V6), the ignitor should be located on the right fender. Disconnect the wiring harness and remove the two fasteners to remove the ignitor.

Shoot some video of the problem and post it up.

Did it do this before you changed out the plugs and wires? Is the check engine light on? Did you pull any codes? If so, what were the codes?

What other maintenance was performed prior to this situation? Any other issues that might give us some clues?

Actually I think I connected the wires wrong .
I looked at your diagram again and it looked weird.
I connected the wires like this

1_1
2_2
3_3
Front engine.
So I must of have put them wrong

Why r they so mixed up like your diagram ? Weird placements..

Yes...you have them hooked up wrong.

Odd numbered cylinders have the COP while the even numbered cylinders have the wires with the #1 cylinder at the front of the engine. I noticed that the wire hook up is always a difference of 3. 1-4, 3-6, and 5-2. Easy way to remember it.

I didn't design the engine or the diagram. I'm just going with what has been proven to work.

Put the wires to the right places and now seems to be good
I can't tell how much I appriciate your help and quick replies.
Thank you so much.
