Firing order for a 6.5 CI single cylinder engine is In this order .. Cyl # 1 first .. than Cyl # 1 and than Cyl #1 I will let you guess what comes next .... It only has one cylinder ... thetr is no order for firing ... multi cylinder engines have firing orders ... :) Thanks Dave. This has been puzzling me for years but your explaination makes it all clear.
Standard General Motors gasoline engines firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2. Has been for years.
I rebuilt one 25 years ago. Its 153624.
When you lift the engine lid and look at the engine, it should say "Zundfolge" 1432 I believe, all engines for the past 60-70 years have had the firing order embossed or stamped where it is readableon the block, engine case, or cylinder head. My '43 Jeep does, my '70 Ghia does, all other cars do as well.
1-4-2-5-3-6 ========================================================== The above answer is correct if it is a V6 engine but for an inline ( straight ) Ford six cylinder engine it is : ( 1 - 5 - 3 - 6 - 2 - 4 ) The distributor rotor turns CLOCKWISE ( looking from the top )
All V8 Chevrolet engines use the same firing order: 18436572
The Engines in the Astro Vans are Cast-Iron, this includes the 4 and 6 cylinder engines in all years of production.
To find the spark plug wire locations from the distributor to the spark plug, a person will need to know the firing order of the engine. Engine sizes and years for motor vehicles have different firing orders. "Chilton's Repair Manuals" is a good source for finding the specific firing order for most engines.
The firing order is the sequence in which spark is sent from the distributor to the different numbered cylinders. there is only 1 firing order per engine, but each engine manufacturer may use a different one depending on how the engine is built. In example for a four cylinder Isuzu engine the firing order is 1,3,4,2 and the cylinders are numbered 4,3,2,1 from front to back, so as the distributor rotor turns the spark is first sent to cylinder 1 which is at the top of its compression stroke, then it goes to number 3 which is the next cylinder to reach the top of its compression stroke and so on. Remember all stright 6 cyl. engines fire in this order. 1-5-3-6-2-4 Just remember this 15 is to young- 36 is to old and 24 is just right. There are 2 possible firing orders for a 6 cyl. engine. The one stated above and 1-4-2-6-3-5. This was in use some years ago, but I dont know if it still is. In the sixties Ford in Europe used 1-2-4-3 for 4 cyl. engines.
For MR2 2.2, production years 1991 and 1993 the firing order is (1,3,4,2).For other years I don't know.
1992 5 cylinder Volkswagen has built more than one engine in the last 60 years, you know. What Year? Displacement? Number of cylinders?
Ford settled on a single firing order for v6 engines covering many many years of vehicles: 1-4-2-5-3-6Cylinder numbers:1 2 34 5 6(Front of Vehicle)The firing order for the other size & engine types is also available at Autozone.com in the repair guide under Specificationshttp://autorepair.about.com/library/firing_orders/bl-ford-firing-02.htm
