Here is a diagram of the firing order:

In this diagram, the numbers 1, 3, 4, and 2 represent the cylinders. The arrows show the order in which the cylinders fire.
The firing order is important because it ensures that the engine runs smoothly. If the firing order is incorrect, the engine will misfire and run poorly.
