4.3. Using an analog multimeter set to x1k ohms, place the red (+) probe of the multimeter into the end of the
spark plug cap that normally connects to the spark plug and place the black (–) probe into the end of the
cap with the internal screw
(Figure 19-27, Page 19-27) . If the resistance is not between 4.5k to 6.0k
ohms, the cap has failed and must be replaced.

5. If the preceding tests indicate that the ignition coil resistance readings are within acceptable ranges, but the coil
fails to function properly, proceed to the following bench test procedures.
Ignition Coil – Bench Test
1. Remove the coil from the engine. See Ignition Coil Removal on page 20-24.
2. Using an analog multimeter set to x1k ohms, measure the primary coil resistance.
2.1. Place the black (–) probe of the meter on the terminal on the ignition coil (1), and place the red (+) probe on
the core (2) (Figure 19-28, Page 19-28) .
