Ignition Cable: Testing and Inspection

1. REMOVE AIR CLEANER CAP AND MAF METER ASSEMBLY.
- Disconnect the MAF meter connector and IAT sensor connector.
- Loosen the hose clamp, disconnect the air cleaner hose from the intake air connector.
- Remove the air cleaner cap and MAF meter assembly.





2. REMOVE INTAKE AIR CONNECTOR.
- Disconnect the air hose (for IAC) from the air connector.
- Remove the 2 bolts.
- Loosen the hose clamp, disconnect the intake air connector from the throttle body.





3. 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.





4. DISCONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS FROM DISTRIBUTOR CAP.
- Using a screwdriver, lift up the lock claw and disconnect the holder from the distributor cap.





- 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.





5. INSPECT HIGH-TENSION CORD RESISTANCE.
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance.

Maximum Resistance: 25 k Ohms per cord

- If resistance is greater than the maximum, check the terminals.
- If necessary, replace the high-tension cord.





6. RECONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS TO DISTRIBUTOR CAP.
- Assemble the holder and grommet.

HINT: Connect the high-tension cords to the distributor cap as shown in the illustration.





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.





7. RECONNECT HIGH-TENSION CORDS TO SPARK PLUGS.
- Secure the high-tension cords with the clamps as shown in the illustration.
8. REINSTALL INTAKE AIR CONNECTOR.
9. REINSTALL AIR CLEANER CAP AND MAF METER ASSEMBLY.
