Firing order is 123456. Number one being left front cylinder or passenger side front. Cylinders run 1-3-5 going back, driver's side goes back 2-4-6 distributor number one is right in the middle to the front of cap and it turns clockwise. Picturing it as a clock, six o'clock on a clock is number one and then around 2 3 4 5 6.
6:30 on distributor is #1 going clockwise 2,3,4,5,6, firing order is passenger side closest to the grill is # 1, driver side front being #2, 1,3,5 passenger side, 2,4,6 driver side
165432 the pic shows how it should be
I have put my firing order at 123456 and I'm still having firing problems, why?
1988 cutlass ciera 2.8l multi port v6
123456 the front on distibututor is 123456 number 1 is at 6 o'clock then 23456.so I've tried that and I will see if that is right and we will see if that is the right way.

Firing order is as followed I am a mechanic and have a 87 s10 the firing order is driver side is 1,3,6 passenger side firing order is 2,4,6 on the distributor cap after you have installed the rotor and the new cap the order is like a clock 1 goes at the bottom to the left if your in front of the engine it goes 1,2,3,4,5,6 and the lone wire goes in the middle just make sure you follow your wires to the right plug to make sure the firing order is correct or there is no fire and it will code misfire
Try checking your timing as well, I've forgot to check if my timing was correct and almost started a fire
On machanic 96 cant count he said136 and 246 i guess the fifth cylinder dont matter
Some of the older 2.8L V-6 have a different firing order. It's 1-6-5-4-3-2. Distributor turns clockwise
