Ignition System: Testing and Inspection
CHECK THAT SPARK OCCURS:- Disconnect the high-tension cord (from the ignition coil) from the distributor cap.
- Hold the end approx. 12.5 mm (0.50 in) from the body ground.
- See if spark occurs while engine is being cranked.
HINT: To prevent gasoline from being injected from injectors during this test, crank the engine for no more than 1 - 2 seconds at time.
- If the spark does not occur, perform the test in the above image.
