I obviously have been working on big 6 bangers too long. How are the cylinders numbered on a 7.3 PSD? I have looked in 2 different Haynes manuals and get 2 different diagrams. One says 1234 on Pass side, 5678 on driver's side. Other says odd on passenger's side, even on driver's. Yet they show the same injection order.

The engine rotates in a clockwise direction as seen from the front of the truck, and for every 1/4 turn of the engine(crank) each next piston will arrive at TDC. So, When the line on the vibration damper is at the 2 oclock position, cylinders 2 and 5 will be at TDC. When the mark is at the 5 oclock position, cylinders 7 and 6 will be at TDC, 8 oclock has cylinders 3 and 8 at TDC, and back to 11oclock, 1 and 4 will be at TDC.

Cylinder numbers are assigned 1,3,5,7 on the left (passenger USA) bank from front of truck to back, and 2,4,6,8 on the driver's side (USA), front to back. Firing order is 1,2,7,3,4,5,6,8.

This aught to do it for you.
