Ford 5.0L F-Series/Bronco Firing Order 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 & Plug Wire Routing Decal
Spark plug wire routing diagram and firing order (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8) label for a Ford 5.0L V8.
This is a Ford Motor Company 'Important Vehicle Information' engine decal (bilingual English/French) for the 5.0L engine in F-Series trucks and Broncos. The label bears Ford part number F4TE-6176-AA and gives the engine firing order as 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8. A warning states that to prevent crossfire, spark plug wires 1, 3, 5 & 6 must be routed as shown in the accompanying diagram; the same caution is repeated in French. The illustration depicts the engine from above with cylinder numbering: left bank 1-2-3-4 (front to rear shown as 1 at bottom, 4 at top) and right bank 5-6-7-8, and shows the correct spark plug wire routing paths with wire separators near the distributor at the rear of the engine. A reader can learn the correct firing order for this 5.0L truck engine, the factory cylinder numbering layout, and the factory-specified spark plug wire routing needed to avoid induction crossfire between adjacent cylinders in the firing sequence. The 'F4TE' prefix on the part number indicates a 1994 truck-engineering part, consistent with the decal's application to 1994-era F-Series/Bronco 5.0L engines.
