Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection

Fig. 16 Ignition Cable Resistance Test:

SPARK PLUG WIRES
Resistance (with radio) 6000 +/- 1400 ohms
Resistance (without radio) 1000 +/- 400 ohms

Fig. 17 Spark Plug Connector:

SPARK PLUG CONNECTORS
Resistance (with radio) 5000 +/- 1000 ohms
Resistance (without radio) 1000 +/- 400 ohms

Fig. 18 Distributor Cap Connector:

CAP CONNECTORS
Resistance 1000 +/- 400 ohms

IGNITION WIRES
Resistance (without connectors) 0 ohms

NOTE: If resistance is greater than specified for any wire or connector, replace it.
