What cylinder is the 1 on a 1997 4.0 Ford Explorer motor?

On a 1997 Ford Explorer 4.0L SOHC engine (the most common type for that year), the cylinder numbering is done from the passenger side (right side) of the engine, looking at it from the front of the vehicle. Therefore, cylinder #1 is the one closest to the passenger side, at the front of the engine.
