Preceding work:
Testing, adjusting engine. Refer to Engine Testing, Adjustment. Testing and Inspection

Precondition for test
Spark plugs, ignition cables, distributor rotor and distributor cap in proper mechanical and electrical condition.
Test e.g. by visual inspection, measuring resistance and ignition oscilloscope.





Note: Pay attention to the safety precautions when performing work on the ignition system. Switch off ignition when unplugging and connecting the contacters at the TSZ control module.
