How are the cylinders numbered on Chevy v-6?

Chevy V6 cylinder numbering follows a standard pattern, but the specifics depend slightly on the exact engine family and orientation. There isn't a single universal scheme for *all* Chevy V6s across history. However, they generally follow either a left-to-right or right-to-left sequence, as viewed from the driver's seat.

The most common scheme:

* Passenger side (right): Cylinders 1, 3, 5

* Driver's side (left): Cylinders 2, 4, 6

The numbering usually starts at the front of the engine (closest to the radiator) on the passenger side (cylinder #1) and then alternates between sides, moving towards the rear of the engine.

To be certain:

* Consult your owner's manual: This will have a diagram showing the precise cylinder numbering for your specific Chevy V6 engine.

* Look for casting numbers on the engine block: These numbers can help identify the engine family, which can then be used to find a diagram online.

* Use online resources: Websites dedicated to automotive repair and specific Chevy engine models will often have diagrams. Searching for "[your Chevy V6 engine code] cylinder numbering" will likely yield results.

Without knowing the specific year, model, and engine code of your Chevy V6, it's impossible to give a definitive answer. Always rely on the vehicle's documentation or verified online resources for accurate cylinder numbering.
