With the ignition switch OFF, remove the distributor cap.

2.

Remove the 2 screws to disconnect the BLK/YEL and WHT/BLU wires from the terminals A and B respectively.

Ignition Coil Test

3.

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance of the primary winding between the A and B terminals. Replace the coil if the resistance is not within
specifications.

Resistance:

0.3 - 0.5 ohms

4.

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance of the secondary winding between the A and secondary winding terminals. Replace the coil if the
resistance is not within specifications.

Resistance:

9.44k - 14.16k ohms
