Spark Check

  1. Crank engine. Using a high output spark tester, test 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 at 68°F (20°C). Check inside distributor cap and rotor for rough or pitted terminals. Check distributor cap for cracks, wear, and damage. Repair or replace as necessary.
  3. 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 .
