Spark Check

  1. Crank engine. Using a high output spark tester, check for a strong, Blue spark at each secondary ignition plug wire. If spark is not as described, go to next step.
  2. Verify resistance of each spark plug wire is not more than 25,000 ohms. Disconnect and inspect all related ignition system connectors and harness. Clean or repair as necessary, and recheck spark. If strong, Blue spark is still not present, go to IGNITION CONTROL MODULE INPUT TEST .
