Load Sensor Test

  1. Connect timing light to engine. Start engine and increase speed to 4000 RPM. Ignition timing should be 37-43 degrees BTDC. If setting cannot be reached, apply vacuum to ignition control unit until it does.
  2. Disconnect vacuum hose from EZF ignition control unit. Ignition timing should change to 17-23 degrees BTDC. If timing does not change, replace ignition control unit. If timing changes, check vacuum hose or intake manifold for leaks.
