You don't need a diagram.Lift the car disconnect the battery and the wires to the starter solenoid remove the starter bolts and check the shims placement.Replacement starter is reverse to what is listed in removal

It is attached to the bell housing on the drivers side. The starter is located in the back of the engine, under the intake manifold.

2002 Kia Optima 2.4 engine. What is the part called that has the wires from the spark plugs going into it? And can someone tell me where to find a diagram of the correct order?

Question edited a bit more clarity.
Question moved to model category.

When you replaced the starter, did you disconnect the battery? If you did, it is the security system and engine immobilizer that is stopping the car from starting. It needs resetting. Not so easy in a Kia!

The Throttle Position Sensor is nothing to do with the Starter.

The item with the wires you refer to, is normally called the coil pack, but yours has the coil on top of the spark plugs.

https://www.google.com/search?q=2002+kia+optima+2.4+coil+packs

So what it has is a modern type distributor that is 'distributorLESS'.

2.4L Engine Firing Order: 1-3-4-2 Distributorless ignition system.

I have a 2002 Kia Spectra 5speed won't start thought it was the starter replaced it, still nothing. Checked starter and good. used to start if pushed and caught in 2nd gear but now won't do that.

i guessing its an automatic, if it is its the neutral switch not working and probably needs replacing, if it worked in second gear then the switch is not lined up correctly meaning it could be snapped inside https://www.autozone.com/batteries-starting-and-charging/neutral-safety-switch/kia/spectra/2002

Just replace engine in 2005 kia spectra 2.0l and now it won't crank. do i need to reset the computer or what, if so how to do it?

If you just replaceD the engine in your 2005 Kia Spectra, was the replacement engine a good one? It sounds to me like it's a starter or starter solenoid issue! Try "hot-wiring" the starter solenoid, to see if the engine cranks. All security systems are "low level" in terms of current control. But a DIRECT connection from a good battery to the starter solenoid should engage it, which should complete the circuit from the battery to the starter motor.
