Firing Order for Buick Regal.

My son replaced the plugs and wires on my 1994 delta Olds 3.8 engine but it is not working now. Could someone please tell me what the firing order for that engine is

I don't see a 3.8 Liter engine listed in my manual, but I do see the following listings:
4 cyl.; 2.2L, 2.5L, and 2.3 L (Quad 4) firing order = 1-3-4-2
V6 cyl.; 2.8L, 3.1L, 3.4L - firing order = 1-2-3-4-5-6
V6 cyl. 3800 firing order = 1-6-5-4-3-2
Cylinders are numbered from the drive belt side to the trans. side as follows:
front = 1-3-5
rear = 2-4-6
Hope this helps.
