Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection

1.

Inspect spark plug wires for signs of arcing or burning.

2.

Check resistance of wires using an ohmmeter. Resistance should be:

6 K ohm for solid core wires with resistor ends
5.6 ± 1 K ohm for carbon core wires

3.

If resistance is not within specifications, replace spark plug wire set.
