This is my understanding, but am not sure. I have also had no luck in confirming it with anything that I have, or have seen online...

Driver--Front--Passenger Side

5--------------1
6--------------2
7--------------3
8--------------4


does that make any sense? and if so am I right?

Thats how I was told by the dealership if Im reading that the Front Passenger Side is #1 & Front Driver Side is #5

I hope so I got a scan of cylnder 7 misfire, and I know that the driver's side is the side I get the bad valve cover smoke out of the hood.....
