I have a 1998 Chrysler Concorde LXI, with 3.2 liter v6. The check engine light shows that the #2 piston is not firing. To completely self-diagnose the problem, I need to know which piston is #2. That way I can swap the coils, and reset the check engine light, and see if it comes back on. Which one is the #2 piston? Thanks for your help!

The engine does not sit transferse. Standing in front of the car, looking down at the engine, there are 3 on the left, and 3 on the right. Makes sense it is the middle cylinder, but which side, right or left?
