In Reply to: Does anyone know location of #4 Spark Plug?? posted by Howie on February 10, 2002 at 02:30:26:

between 2 & 6. At least in 'Merican cars. Standing in front of the car looking toward the engine. Number one cylinder is the first one on your right (driver side); number two is the first one on your left (passenger side); three is the second back on your right and so on and so on. So . . . on the driver side, front to back, are cylinders 1, 3, 5, and 7. Passenger side, front to back, you'll find 2, 4, 6, 8.

I am not absolutely certain the Duetsch number cylinders the same way - but it's as good a place to start as any.


The "stealer" told me that number 4 spark plug had oil on it, and said that I need valve cover gasket. I don't believe him because I changed the plugs last month and didn't see any oil in old plugs. Besides the dealer that serviced the car before I owned it told me that valve cover gaskets were replaced 20k ago. I would like to look at this number 4 spark plug myself to see if he is telling the truth.
The dealer in question is Life Quality Bmw in Brooklyn New York.
I need to know where the number 4 plug is. Thanks Howie
