Van Wagon 2WD L4-2237cc 2.2L (4Y-E) (1989)
Primary Coil Testing
7.
Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between ignition coil (+) and (-) terminals.
Primary Resistance (Cold):
1.2 - 1.5 ohms
Secondary Coil Testing
8.
Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between ignition coil (+) and the secondary terminals.
Secondary Resistance (Cold):
7.7k - 10.4k ohms
9.
Check ignition coil for signs of carbon tracking, burned or discolored plastic, external leakage, or cracks in the housing.
10.
If ignition coil resistance is not within specifications or physical damage is apparent, replace ignition coil.
Pickup Coil Testing
11.
Disconnect primary wire connector at distributor.
12.
Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between terminals the pick-up coil terminals.
Pickup Coil Resistance:
130 - 210 ohms
13.
If resistance was not within specifications, replace pick-up coil assembly. If no faults were found, proceed with this test.
