Ignition Coil: Testing and Inspection

1. With the ignition switch OFF, remove the distributor cap.

Ignition Coil Inspection:

2. remove the two screws to disconnect the BLK/YEL and the WHT/BLU wires from terminals A (+) and B (-) respectively.
3. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between the terminals. Replace the coil if the resistance is not within specifications.

- Primary Winding Resistance (between the A and B terminals): 0.6 - 0.8 Ohms.
- Secondary Winding Resistance (between the A and coil wire terminals): 12.8 - 19.2 kOhms

NOTE: Resistance will vary with the coil temperature; specifications are at 20°C (68 °F).
