Firing order is different than cylinder numbering. For the Boxster it is 1, 6, 2, 4, 3, 5. NM

can anyone help me with cylinder numbering?
grant - 9 years ago

How the 6 are numbered, using driver's and passengers' sides as references, and front and back?

I *think* its passenger F --> B 1,2,3
-then
driver's F --> B 4,5,6

So #6 is the furthest rearward, driver's side.

Need to correlate a code to a plug/coil/bang

For flat engines looking at the engine from the non-power output end cylinder #1 is the 1st cylinder on the left bank with cylinder #2 is the 2nd cylinder and then cylinder #3. Cylinder #4 is the first cylinder on the right bank followed by #5 and then #6.

That's the best diagram around, but is the image name misleading concerning firing order? *NM*

1 2 3 4 5 6 = a lumpy idle and a very cranky crankshaft! *NM*
