Instantiated Particles reverse direction. Why?

Question

I created a Particle System and then made a prefab with the particles spraying to the left, but when I instantiate them in the scene the particles spray the opposite way, directly to the right. Does anybody know why this is happening and how I can correct it? Thanx

 #pragma strict
 var ParticleSystemPrefab : Transform;
 function Start() {
     
      Instantiate(ParticleSystemPrefab, GameObject.Find("Tum1").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);      
 
 }`

I've tried taking out "Quaternion.identity" and replaced it with transform.rotation but this didn't do anything. Any suggestions?

#pragma strict var ParticleSystemPrefab : Transform; function Start() {

instant = Instantiate(ParticleSystemPrefab, GameObject.Find("Tum1").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);
instant.transform.rotation.x = 90; //Just add the perfect rotation here }

thank you. I added this and it also works. Quaternion.FromToRotation (Vector3.back, transform.forward));
