Inspection Procedure

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1. Check resistance of each pickup coil in Distributor.





- Disconnect Distributor connector.
- Measure resistance between each terminal shown below.





- "Cold" is from -10°C (14°F) to 50°C (122°F) and "Hot" is from 50°C (122° F) to 100°C (212°F).
- If OK proceed to step 2.
- If not OK replace Distributor.
2. Check for open and short in harness and connector between Engine Control Module and Distributor.
- If OK proceed to step 3.
- If not OK repair or replace harness or connector.
3. Check air gap.





- Remove Distributor cap & rotor.
- Using SST (G1 and G2 pickups) and a thickness gauge (NE pickup), measure the air gap between the signal rotor and pickup coil projection (SST 09240-00020 for G1 and G2 pickups).

Air gap: 0.2 - 0.4 mm (0.008 - 0.016 in)

- If OK check and replace Engine Control Module.
- If not OK replace Distributor.
