92 buick le saber---changing plug wires... rear cylinders are even, front are odd... from left (passenger side) to right(drv. side) what order is correct?? PLEASE help. am poor single father and mechanicaly stoooopid.

Firing order is 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2.
Under the hood, front bank of cylinders, from left to right, 1 3 5 7
The rear bank of cylinders from left to right 2 4 6 8. Odd and even banks.
good luck

The cylinder banks are odd and even numbered. driver side bank 1 3 5, passenger side bank 2 4 6, from front to back. firing order, 1 6 5 4 3 2. the rotor, cw rotation. I'd put the #1 cylinder on top dead center of compression stroke, then which ever spark plug tower the rotor is leading into, in the direction of rotation, is number 1, then follow the firing order around the cap. Sorry, I don't have picture of how cap is numbered. good luck

In the 4 cylinder the firing order is 1,3,4,2 and the cylinders are numbered 1,2,3,4 from the Passenger side to the drivers side.

In a V6 the firing order is 1,6,5,4,3,2 and the cylinders are numbered 1,3,5 in the front from the passenger side to the drivers side and 2,4,6 in the back from the passengers side to the drivers side.

General motors cars all have basically the same cylinder numbering order, odd on the driver's side on rear wheel drive cars and front on front wheel drive cars. So, it will be1,3,5 on the front and 2,4,6 on the rear or pass. side. Firing order should be 1,6,5,4,3,2.

From standing in front of car and facing engine:

3.1L and 3.4L OHV V-6: The cylinder location is from left to right (rear cylinders) 1,3,5
(front cylinders)2,4,6

The coil terminals from left to right: 5,2,3,6,4,1
Firing order 1,2,3,4,5,6

3.4L DOHC V-6: The cylinder location is from left to right (rear) 1,3,5 (front) 2,4,6
The coil terminals are from front to rear 5,2,3,6,4,1
The firing order 1,2,3,4,5,6

3.8L V-6 cylinders left to right (rear)2,4,6 (front) 1,3,5
coil terminals front to rear 1,4,5,2,3,6
firing order 1,6,5,4,3,2

Insofar as your Ignition Wiring Diagram, I hope you're speaking of what's also called the Spark Plug Cables or Firing Order. The proper Firing order for your V-6 is 1-5-3-6-2-4 with the number 1 cylinder being the front spark plug on the left hand side. The left hand side is Odd numbered and the Right hand side is Even numbered, therefore number 2 cylinder is the 1st plug on the right hand side of the engine.

1,6,5,4,3,2. Cylinders are #1-front bank, passenger side with 3, 5 toward driver side. #2 is rear bank on passenger side with 4, 6 toward driver side (USA cars).

The 3800 after 1984 is 'distributorless' so you have six "firing coils" located on the front of the engine and numbered for your convenience. looking at the 'front' of the engine which is where all the pulleys and the serpentine belt is viewing from the passenger side fender, the cylinders are numbered #1 on your right then #2 on your left and alternate right left from front to rear of the motor to connect your wires.
