I have a 1931 Chevy Coach and am looking for the firing order on the straight 6. Does anyone know what it is or where I could find this info. Thanks, Ken

153624 is fireing order for all Chevy 6 cyl.

Hello Ken31, and welcome to Chevy Chatter II

Firing order is: 1-5-3-6-2-4, with number 1 being at the front and number 6 at the rear.

Here's a website with lots of info on the 31:

You'll find a lot of good people here on Chatter II with years and years of experience, and more than willing to help with any questions.

Good luck with your project.

Happy Motoring,

The firing order is also embossed on the exhaust manifold.

Thanks a lot for the info guys! Any suggestions on spark plug gap and timing settings? According to the manual the gap should be .022, however I've heard some suggest as big as .045...

Also, while we're at it... point gaps? I don't have the manual in front of me, but I think it suggested .018. Any suggestions?

Spark Plug gap: .040"
Point gap: .018"
Timing: 18 Degrees

thanks I'll try that
