Hyundai Kia 2.7L V6 Engine Firing Order, Cylinder Location, Bank-1 and Bank-2

The Hyundai and Kia 2.7L V6 is from the Delta and Mu engine families (G6BA and G6EA). It was a popular engine and it was used from 1998 up to 2010.

The injector numbering is the same as the cylinder numbering. On the 2006-2010 coil-on-plug engines, the coil numbers match the cylinder numbers too. Coil 1 and injector 1 are both cylinder 1.

Earlier 1998-2005 Delta engines used a waste-spark coil pack instead of individual coils, but the cylinder numbers and firing order stayed the same.
