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 kohm 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.
