Cylinder locations on 2000 dodge Dakota 8 cyl?

The 2000 Dodge Dakota with an 8-cylinder engine (likely a 5.2L or 5.9L V8) uses a standard V8 firing order. However, the *specific* cylinder numbering can vary slightly depending on which side of the engine is considered "bank 1".

To be certain, you need to consult your owner's manual or a repair manual specific to your year and engine size. These resources will have diagrams clearly showing the cylinder location and numbering.

Generally, V8 engines have a pattern of firing that repeats, but the numbering depends on the manufacturer's convention. Trying to determine the cylinder location without a diagram is unreliable and could lead to errors during maintenance or repairs.
