Which is the #1 cylinder? The one closer to the distributor or the alternator? The Haynes manual has a pictorial showing one and another saying it is on the left.

This should help if you have a V6.

On GM engines it's always the cylinder closest to the water pump.

on all engines, it is the piston that is the closest to the front of the engine. (or has the connecting rod closest to the front of the crank shaft)

well there was a 4 cylinder motorcycle that had 2 crank shafts in the 50's and that one was weird so never mind it.
