    Hello, I am posting because I can't find information on cylinder numbering, but I can start from the beginning. Yesterday coming back from
    work, the car fired normally but only for 2 cylinders, the car jerks terribly and the speed jumps max. Strangely, by the time this fault was all ok. I would bet on an ignition coil or candles but I need information more experienced than me what to do in this topic, including which is the 3rd cylinder from the front of the car? Regards

    You count from the timing, i.e. standing in front of the car from the left side first. It's 99% coil (that's my bet).

    great thank you for the answer, so I would bet on the coil, of course, I can not exclude other failures such as candle or valve burn out but so far there was no problem.

    By the way, check or replace the candles, because a used candle shortens the life of the coil.

    Thank you for helpful references to the topic. Tomorrow I will start taking the car after work because it won't work out because of the 2nd day of Christmas. Regards

    Welcome back. Yesterday I purchased a new coil and it turned out that she was the problem. Replacement is very simple, you just have to get tired of unzipping the cube and everything quickly flies. Error cleared by elm 37 and piston application for android. I consider the topic closed. Regards
