Where is 2 spark plug on 2004 Chrysler 3.8?

The 2004 Chrysler 3.8L engine (a common engine found in several Chrysler models) uses a specific firing order, and the location of the spark plugs follows that order. There isn't a simple "number 2 spark plug" location without knowing the firing order.

To find #2 spark plug, you need:

1. The Firing Order: This is crucial. The firing order for the 3.8L varies slightly depending on the specific application (car model). Consult your owner's manual or a reliable online resource like a repair manual specific to your exact Chrysler model and year (e.g., a Haynes or Chilton manual). The firing order will be listed as a sequence of numbers (e.g., 1-6-5-4-3-2).

2. A Diagram: Once you have the firing order, locate a diagram of the engine showing the spark plug locations. Again, your owner's manual or a repair manual will provide this. The diagram will show each cylinder and its corresponding spark plug.

With the Firing Order and Diagram: Starting from cylinder #1 (usually easily identifiable on the diagram), follow the firing order until you reach cylinder #2. The diagram will show you the physical location of the spark plug for that cylinder.

Important Note: Working on your engine's ignition system requires some mechanical aptitude. If you are not comfortable working on your car, it's best to take it to a qualified mechanic. Improperly handling spark plugs can lead to injury or damage to your engine.
