Best Answer

On modern Ford engines the number 1 cylinder is rather easy to locate. V-style engines are broken into 2 banks, Bank 1 and Bank 2. For example on a V6, Bank 1 will have cylinder 1,2, & 3 while Bank 2 will have cylinder 4,5, & 6. When facing the front of the engine Bank 1 will be slightly closer to you than Bank 2. However, the easiest way to determine cylinder #1 is to imagine yourself at the back of the engine (note: on transverse mounted engines the front of the motor is not facing you while standing in front of the vehicle but actually to one side. Look for the pulley and drive belts as that generally denotes the front of the engine.). From the rear of the motor Bank 1 is always the right hand bank on newer fords. Therefore cylinder # 1 will be on the most forward cylinder on the right side of the motor as viewed from the rear of it.

Hi, Have you tried looking in your owners manual first for the spark plug gap, some owners manuals will say there is an underhood engine specification listing underneath the hood and also to check under your hood to see if its there.
