Dis (1.3L & 1.8L): Spark

Crank engine and check for spark at coil wire and each spark plug wire using Spark Tester (J-26792). If spark exists at some spark plug wires, check for defective ignition coil tower. Check spark plug high tension wire resistance. On 1.3L, spark plug high tension wires resistance should be 1200-3000 ohms per foot. On 1.8L, resistance of spark plug high tension wires should not exceed 25,000 ohms. On all models, replace spark plug high tension wires if resistance exceeds specification.
