I was surprised to find Dodge still using a distributor on this engine. The firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 and the cylinders on the driver side are 1-3-5-7.
From the 2001 Dodge Dakota maintenance manual. Note the numbering of the 6 cylinders and the arrow indicating front of engine. Firing order: 1-6-5-4-3-2, with distributor rotating clockwise.
For all Dodge V8 truck engines, the firing order is 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2.
For all Dodge V6 truck engines, the firing order is 1-6-5-4-3-2.
For Dodge inline 6 cylinder engines, the firing order is
For all Dodge 4 cylinder engines, the firing order is 1-3-4-2
All dodge distributors rotate clockwise.
look at your distributor cap while standing on the driver's side of the vehicle. Start at number 1, which is labelled on the cap, and go clockwise
If you are looking at your engine from the front of the truck, here is the cylinder layout: 6 5 4 3 2 1 The distributor rotates clockwise and the firing order is: 1-6-5-4-3-2 You can find a picture of this at: http://autorepair.about.com/library/firing_orders/bl-fo-9158.htm
