I inverted the leading and trailing wires.
I inverted the leading and trailing wires and I start the engine and took a ride.
Did I destroy my engine?
What damage could I cause?
Thanx.

We (my brother and me) have a 3° and a 1987 N/A (basic) 2° gen.
By inverted I mean that I put the blue wires on the lower spark plug and the black on the upper spark plug of each rotor.
Thanks for your help.

I wouldn't worry. i did that once with my first rex since the previous owner switched either the boots or the wires for some reason. i drove it up the street it ran like hell so i went home and after I figured out the problem it was ok for at least 10k miles then someone pulled out in front of me and i never drove it after that. : (

When I bought my car the leading and trailing wires were switched on one rotor. I drove it for a few days like that before I figured out it was a problem. Switched the wires and am still driving the car, 50,000+ miles later.
Oh when I switched the wires back the car Idled much better.
