Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection

HIGH-TENSION CORDS INSPECTION
1. DISCONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS FROM SPARK PLUGS





- Disconnect the high - tension cords at the rubber boot.
- Do not pull on the cords.

NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage the conductor inside.

2. DISCONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS FROM DISTRIBUTOR CAP





- Using a screwdriver, lift up the lock claw and disconnect the holder from the distributor cap.
- Disconnect the high-tension cord at the grommet.
- Do not pull on the cords.

NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage the conductor inside.

3. INSPECT HIGH-TENSION CORD RESISTANCE





- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance.

Maximum resistance: 25 k Ohms per cord

- If the resistance is greater than maximum, check the terminals.
- If necessary, replace the high - tension cord.
4. RECONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS TO DISTRIBUTOR CAP





- Connect the holder and grommet portion to the distributor cap as shown the illustration.





NOTICE:
- Check that the holder is correctly installed to the grommet and distributor cap as shown In the illustration.
- Check that the lock claw of the holder is engaged by lightly pulling the holder.

5. RECONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS TO SPARK PLUGS





- Secure the high-tension cords with the clamps as shown in the illustration.
