3.8 which cylinder is # 5

scoped · 2015-06-10T04:24:34-07:00

I'm finding all sorts of conflicting information and I'm assuming it comes from the transverse (wrong) mounting and the appropriate longitudinal mounting. I have just replaced the plugs and got 86 misfires on cylinder 5 yesterday so i double checked all wires and connections and received 104 misfires on 5 today. The actual question is cylinder 5 back (firewall) passenger side or driver side? I need to replace/move the plug to check it.

I found this thread on jkowners forum. http://www.jkowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=82715

They say the coil packs should be labeled with the cylinder numbers.
