I had a fuel injector problem so I remove both injectors and had one clean but had to replace the other one as it had seized. This has taken the best part of two weeks; I’ve not the best of memory so in the meantime I’ve forgotten which cylinder is which. So the question is:-

Which cylinder is #1 and which is #2 ??????
(oh by the way it’s off a 91 851)

cheers rob

Check the cable on the plugs for the injectors.

They should be marked with an "O" for "Orizzontale" - that's Horizontal in English - and the other will be marked with a "V" for "Verticale" - which is Vertical.

That tells you which connector goes to which cylinder

I know it's probably not mush of a help,but my SP5(which is twin injectors),the Horizontal is 1 & 2 and the Vertical 3 & 4.

cheers jasper,

it seems a harder question than i thought, but due to the limited number of replys ill go with #1 being the horizontal unless somebody else knows better.

Do you have a Haynes or Workshop manual that would tell you?
