What is the firing order on a 1996 Chevy Malibu?

The 1996 Chevy Malibu likely had either a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine or a 3.1L V6 engine. The firing order depends entirely on which engine your Malibu has. There's no single answer.

* 2.4L 4-cylinder: The firing order is typically 1-3-4-2.

* 3.1L V6: The firing order is typically 1-6-5-4-3-2.

You must check your engine bay to determine which engine you have before using the appropriate firing order. The engine displacement (2.4L or 3.1L) should be clearly visible on the engine block.
