are you sure you've got the coils on the right spots... from left to right should look like this...

It's also funny that you say 2-3 are not firing... i hope you didn't mix up the crank signal connector with the coil pack connector. They are the same... on the same side... and it has been done before. Usually when that happens the ecu gets fried!!

Crank sensor is to the left/back and about half way down on the black cover to the timing belt.

usually the connector switch is what happens... seen it a few times now. Check them... the line with the shrink wrap goes to coil... the line with the loom wrap goes to crank.

Another telltale is the loom clip... it connects on the side of the timing cover case. It is on the crank side/wire loom.
