Ignition Checks: Spark

Crank engine, checking 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 distributor cap and/or defective rotor. Check spark plug high tension wire resistance. Replace spark plug high tension wires if resistance exceeds 6700 ohms per foot.
