Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection
1. REMOVE AIR CLEANER CAP AND MASS AIR FLOW (MAF) METER ASSEMBLY.2. DISCONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS FROM SPARK PLUGS.
- Disconnect the high - tension cords at the rubber boot.
DO NOT pull on the cords.
NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage the conductor inside.
3. DISCONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS FROM IGNITION COILS.
- Using a screwdriver, lift up the lock claw and disconnect the holder from the ignition coils.
- Disconnect the high-tension cord at the grommet. DO NOT pull on the cord.
NOTICE: Pulling on or bending the cords may damage the conductor inside. Do not wipe any of the oil from the grommet after the high-tension cord is disconnected.
4. INSPECT HIGH-TENSION CORD RESISTANCE
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance.
Maximum resistance: 25 k Ohms per cord.
- If the resistance is greater than the maximum, check the terminals. If necessary, replace the high-tension cord.
5. RECONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS TO IGNITION COILS.
- Assemble the holder and grommet.
- Align the spline of the ignition coil with the spline of the holder, and push in the cord.
NOTICE: Check that the holder is correctly installed to the grommet and distributor cap as shown in the illustration.
- Check that the lock claw of the holder is engaged by lightly pulling the holder.
