Cylinder Identification Mazda Skyactive 2.5L Four Cylinder

In this video I go over the cylinder identification for a Mazda Skyactive 2.5L four cylinder engine. Starting from the front of the engine, nearest the accessory drive, you have cylinder #1 and then moving toward the rear of the engine you have #2, then #3 and finally #4 nearest the transmission.

Knowing the identification of each cylinder of an engine is vital information when it comes to diagnosing cylinder specific diagnostic trouble codes. Once the cylinder is identified you can then test the components related to that cylinder.

As mentioned in this video, I'm using my experience in the making of this video. It's been my experience that most Mazda 4 cylinders have a similar lay out. However, I do not pretend to know everything nor do I claim this information is correct for every application that the Skyactive 2.5L is used. (I can't imagine there is an exception though.)
