2008 Suzuki XL7 Repair Question
Suzuki XL7 Engine Problem
Answer
Look at engine from crank pulley side. Left is Bank 2.
No sir... the left bank contained the forward cylinder (cylinder 1) making that bank one... the right bank closest to the radiator is bank 2.
For most vehicles, left bank is numbered 1, 3 and 5 making it bank one but for this engine, our database indicates otherwise.
