Description: I've been hearing the term "odd-fire V6" ever since I got into the Jeep hobby. You hear the term a lot because the optional Dauntless 225 that went into the late 60's CJ5 is such a popular swap into other Jeeps. I'd always wondered what people meant by "odd-fire", and when I bought an M38A1 that had been the subject of a '76 Buick 231 V6 swap my curiosity became even more pronounced. But it wasn't until I decided to change my points type distributor to a GM HEI type that I became determined to find out just what "odd-fire" really means. I searched high and low on the web, even purchased a Buick repair manual just to try and gather information, but try as I might I couldn't find any information on what was so odd about this engine. So finally I sat down and put my noggin to work one day and with a good bit of email help from Bill Lagler, not to mention a lot of scribbling, I think I've got it figured out. It's actually fairly straight forward once you understand... So now, without further adieu, this is what's so odd about the Jeep/Buick "odd-fire" V6.
