Component Tests and General Diagnostics

IGNITION COIL CHECK
1. Measurement of the primary coil resistance Measure the resistance between connector terminals 1 and 2 of the distributor.

Standard value: 0.56 - 0.68 ohms

2. Measurement of the secondary coil resistance Measure the resistance between the high-voltage terminal and connector terminal 1.

Standard value: 9.4 - 12.8 k ohms







IGNITION COIL POWER TRANSISTOR CONTINUITY CHECK

NOTE: An analog-type ohmmeter should be used.

NOTE: Connect the negative (-) probe of the ohmmeter to terminal 2.

CAUTION: This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10 seconds) to prevent coil from burning and ignition power transistor from breaking.


Replace the ignition power transistor if there is a malfunction.
