Great video, only thing I'd add would be letting the viewer know that the left bank and right bank of the engine are labeled when viewing the engine from the rear.
Changed ignition coil and didn't know which cylinder was 3, took a guess and was right now that I see this video, but problem continued lol so guess wasn't ignition coil great video
There's another way for cyclinder placement is from the driver's side. The exsample is this when facing the engine from the front the leftside would be on your fight and visa versa ......
i have a ford duratec v6. i had a misfire in cylinder 2. the mechanic put the new coil in my cylinder 4, which would be cylinder 2 if it were a GM motor.
The firing order is not in order by cylinder number to distributor. Its the camshaft that gets the firing order. I personally build Ford V-8s and you can change the firing order on a 289, 302 just by installing a 351W camshaft by doing so it doesn't fire cylinders 1 and 5 simultaneously putting less stress on the front of the crankshaft.
what about a 2017 Hyundai with 4 cylinders. The rows are going horizontal instead of vertical so I'm not sure if you count left to right or right to left?
Wow, Ford really be likethat? Lol. I was just about to change my spark after the code said a misfiring in cylinder 7, so I figured I should probably know where that is 😂 I used to think I bought this hooptie for a good deal. Now after hearing all the horror stories on how hard it is to work on this thing I think I know why it was so cheap
Number 1 is not always in front....i repete not always in front..if you time a 4 cyl. Geo tracker , like number 1is up front it will not start but if you time it as number4 is then it will start...
You sir had your distributor 180* out. It's very easy to do that and the tracker is an engine that if 180 out you can basically pretend the cylinder numbering is backwards and it works. I'm one of the few people in the world that has actually rebuilt a tracker 1.6 engine. The farthest forward cylinder is number 1. The bores were so small we had to get my friends daughter to wash the cylinder walls.
@@macsgarage LoL..... I believe you that you have done one ....lol..just one.. If you will look here on TH-cam there is a guy who will explain it to you..... LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THEY KNOW until they run into these engines, I've seen 3 And thats all I have to say...
They don't. You can call a dog's tail be a leg, but it doesn't make it one. Likewise, Ford can be name their cylinders Do-Ray-Me or 1,2,3, but that doesn't mean they fire in that order. 💡 Just keeping it simple.
It's the stroke of the crankshaft and the lobes of the camshaft per intake valve Please do not work on engines cause they will not turn or fire. You probably tie your shoes together and go out for a jog and blame it on a crack in the sidewalk to why you fell on your face.
The International/Navistar (6.9, 7.3, 6.0, 6.4) built engines installed in ford pickups are not numbered by ford and are different. The 6.7 is ford and is numbered like the video.
My friend!! How 'come you say that Ford screws every buddy up ? You forget that Ford is "Pioneer" of auto industry. The others are followers. So Ford has been imitated all the time. Ford is not going to change a good way of logical thinking and become a follower instead of keeping leading!!
Ford is the only American V8 that is numbered that way(pretty sure anyway). So In a Numbers game against GM, Chrysler, AMC, Ect someone that works on a variety will be thrown off by Ford. As for Ford being a pioneer of the auto industry. I would argue the largest single impact Ford has had on the auto industry has been assembly process itself more so than engineering or vehicle design. That's not to say Ford hasn't been innovative in engineering or design however all the companies were as well.
@donnellray119 you can always Google the numbering for your application as there are always exceptions. There are also a few countries around the world that drive on the other side of the road. So it's all subjective in a way. The information in the video is correct however there are likely exceptions.
"On a MULTI-CYLINDER engine". Ummmm... why the hell you feel the need to specify this? You ever worked with an engine that had a SINGLE CYLINDER??? Literally every engine is a MULTI-cylinder engine.
Wow now that's just wanting to comment some shit. Totally irrelevant. It didn't affect anybodys view of the video or confuse them. What a dick to point that out wtf 😂
Awesome video. I was looking for the best/easiest way to explain this to my Son and this is perfect. Thank you.
Props to showing to your son
Great video, only thing I'd add would be letting the viewer know that the left bank and right bank of the engine are labeled when viewing the engine from the rear.

Finally a video that is clear, straight to the point, and easy to understand.
need to know on dodge 6 cylinder
Very helpful, thank you very much, clearly explained.
Well done with explanations why. As an engineer of small engines, air cooled, I appreciate your references. 👍
You have a left and a right bank on V6 and V8 engines. Cylinder 1 is your first bank depending on manufacturer.
I have been retired for a number of years, but if I remember correctly Japan numbers there cylinders ( inline engines) rear ( flywheel ) to front.
Very well explained, great tutorial 👍
Great Video. Thank you.
Muchas gracias mi amigo, valiosa información. Benjamin Herrera desde Venezuela.
This was really helpful thanks man
There's another way for cyclinder placement is from the driver's side. The exsample is this when facing the engine from the front the leftside would be on your fight and visa versa ......
pontiac numbers the same as the rest of gm but the passenger bank is the most forward so the crank numbering does not hold up
Very helpful, thank you so much.
Thank you Sir for this knowledge
Well explained even grandma would understand
Thank you for your good explanation abbot wer is located the cl #1.
Very helpful. Thanks.
The Jaguar XK engine numbers from the Bulkhead.
Great video
Grand Mercury 2002 model
4.6
Can anyone guide by row and column
Some Deutz diesel inline engines have the number 1 cylinder at the flywheel end! Weird eh.
Please, what is the order of the pistons for a Ran 2014 1500 ecodiesel
Great ideas, thanks
Great information.
So on a Ford eco-boost, 3.5 L 2011 12 and three are on passenger side with three being closest to the firewall?
Yes
i have a ford duratec v6.
i had a misfire in cylinder 2.
the mechanic put the new coil in my cylinder 4, which would be cylinder 2 if it were a GM motor.
Thank you! 2.7 ecoboost. I was hoping #1 wasn't passenger back, its a bear to get to....
Ha! I saw what you did at 2:08. Perhaps the top 2 "cylinders" on the right looked just a BIT too much like the pope's hat, perhaps??? lol
So the engine cylinder numbers must match up with the distributor
The firing order is not in order by cylinder number to distributor. Its the camshaft that gets the firing order.

what about a 2017 Hyundai with 4 cylinders. The rows are going horizontal instead of vertical so I'm not sure if you count left to right or right to left?
You’d count from the harmonic balancer (front) to the transmission (back)
Aren't they different on other models to
Audi and VW are the same as Ford
Good info. Thanks
Where is the cylinder 2 for 2015 toyota avalon please
What the firing sequence?
Set by the camshaft
Good
Look like ford ways is easier to me
Apreciated.
Good info

So where is bank 1 and bank 2 when both cylinders 1 and 2 are on the same side???
Bank 1 has cylinder #1. The other bank is bank 2.
Thank u
Benz?
In line 6 cylinder jo8t engine number 1
Thanks
About tundra v6.?
How can the ford fire them in order, I’ll never buy a ford.

Way too much Yaba Yaba bro. Just make the drawings and point out cylinder #1
No , Ford put cylinder no. 1 on the drivers side
If you drive on the wrong side.
@@macsgaragedamn this commenter has confused me now. Idk what to believe.

I've worked on many engines with a single cylinder. Do you really not belive single cylinder engines exist? Ever mow a lawn with a push mower?
