Question did autolite spark plugs screw up coil or coils ??

okay, so this is still regarding the issue i posted before. disel into engine. that fuel drained, put in autolite plugs, got car running. car seems perfect. was told its the plugs that are causing light to be on. denso plugs installed, light off, then back on. i buy code reader. it tells me code p0420. i call mechanic and tell him light is back on and he says okay, then it must be the coil. i ask, what do you mean. says coil 1 needs to be swapped with #4 and #4 needs to be swapped with #1. why is it that from the amount of EXACT DETAIL that i had in my previous posts about the car. not ONE person has said anything about any sort of coil. i even did a search on here for the word COIL. Wow, nothing in search results. I have seen from reading many posts on here way before i was ever a member. the amount of people on here saying, wow, thanks guys. you were all right. my mechanic or dealership, etc tells me this yet you guys have the real answers. so to me, someone that is not too good with this type of stuff. it tells me to go with what your all saying and not trust the local mechanic.

So would putting diesel into yaris have fouled coil or coils? how about would cheap autolite spark plugs have fouled coils? both combined? yes? no? maybe? no way in hell?
