Distributor: Testing and Inspection
DISTRIBUTOR INSPECTION
NOTICE: "Cold" and "Hot" in the following sentences express the temperature of the coils themselves. "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).
1. Disconnect distributor connector.
2. Remove distributor cap without disconnecting high-tension cords
. 3. Remove rotor.
4. Inspect air gaps.
G1 And G2 Pickups
Using a thickness gauge, measure the gap between the signal rotor and the pickup coil projection.
Air gap: 0.2 - 0.4 mm (0.008 - 0.016 in.)
If the gap is not as specified, replace the distributor housing.
5. Inspect signal generator (pickup coil) resistance.
Using an ohmmeter, check that the resistance of the pickup coil.
Pickup coil resistance:
Cold:
G1 and G(-): 185 - 275 ohm
G2 and G(-): 185 - 275 ohm
NE and G(-): 185 - 275 ohm
Hot:
G1 and G(-): 240 - 325 ohm
G2 and G(-): 240 - 325 ohm
NE and G(-): 240 - 325 ohm
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the distributor housing.
