Noteworthy Ignition Information

There are important considerations to point out when servicing the ignition system. The following noteworthy information will list some of these, to help the technician in servicing the ignition system.
^ The ignition coils secondary voltage output capabilities are very high - more than 40,000 volts. Avoid body contact with ignition high voltage secondary components when the engine is running, or personal injury, may result!
^ The crankshaft position sensor clearance is very important! The sensor must not contact the reluctor wheel at any time, or sensor damage will result If the reluctor wheel contacts the sensors, destruction of the sensors will occur.
^ Ignition timing is not adjustable. There are no timing marks on the crankshaft pulley.
^ It a boot remains attached to a coil or spark plug, twist the boot prior to removal using the correct tool. Do not use pliers, screwdrivers, or any unauthorized tools to remove the boot.
^ Check the boot for a missing or damaged internal spring.
^ Do not re-install any component that has visible signs of damage.
^ Install the boots onto the coils (until bottomed out). Then install the assembly onto the spark plugs. If this is not possible due to space limitations, just-start the boots onto the spark plugs and then install the coil assembly as straight down onto the plugs as possible.
^ Ensure the boots are installed right side up.
^ Repair a torn perimeter seal with RTV sealant.
^ Adhere to the torque specifications when installing the cassette to the cam cover and the module to the cassette.
