drastic and expensive to change the coil pack, get the codes read. On V6 its going to be the crank sensor  :y

Are you sure you have the plug leads the right way around?

Even if they are the put in the wrong order it should at least start? - But run like a bag of spanners

The ignitions wires are right way round she started a day after i did the coil, when i tried yesday sounded like no fuel entering and no spark will do the paper clip test and c what happens, the crank sensor is near the oil filter am i right? and the cam shaft nr the rocker covers.. got feeling its the crank sensor :-X

Yes crank sensor is next to the oil filter. Faulty crank sensor will cause V6 not to start
