Cylinder Order?

Post by MESINCITY »

1999 S70 T5...

read the beautiful cylinder misfire write up...I just do not have enough documentation...facing the car from the front, with the hood open, left to right, what is the order of the cylinders??? i.e. is cylinder 1 just the farthest to the left (my left when facing the car)? the writeup on the cylinder 5 misfire noted that #5 was the last one on the right...

any help would be great...thanks!

and my apologies...i'm a newbie to this site...did some searching but did not see a response to my question...

If it's just on one cylinder, probably a coil pack. Look for cracking in the housing.
