IGNITION SYSTEM - 4B - 23
90-816462 2-695
Component Tests
The following tests can be made with the distributor
and coil mounted on or off the engine. The test proce-
dures will check each component of the distributor
and ignition coil. Distributor cap and rotor should be
checked for corrosion, cracks, carbon tracks or wear.
Replace if needed.
In order to test the module, an approved module tes-
ter, such as Kent-Moore Tester, (J24642 or equiva-
lent), must be used. Be certain to follow the manufac-
turer’s directions precisely for proper results.
However, do not overlook that corrosion on the termi-
nals of the module could cause improper ignition ac-
tion and should therefor be inspected and cleaned if
needed.

1. If not already done, disconnect wiring from igni-
tion coil. Connectors are molded and keyed to as-
sure proper positioning. The terminal (e) feeds 12
volts to the distributor.
NOTE: Upon reinstallation, first install black connec-
tor (distributor harness) to coil. Then install gray con-
nector (engine harness).
2. Set ohmmeter to “Rx100” scale and connect one
lead to 12 volt terminal (b) of coil and the other
lead to “ground” (d), any clean metal on the coil
frame. Reading should be infinite. If not, replace
coil.
3. Set ohmmeter to “Rx100” scale and connect to 12
volt terminal (b) and terminal (c). Reading should
be approximately .4 ohms. If not, replace coil.
4. Set ohmmeter to “Rx1” scale and connect to 12
volt terminal (b) and tachometer terminal (f).
Reading should be approximately .4 ohms. If not,
replace coil.
5. Set ohmmeter to “Rx100” high scale. Connect
ohmmeter to 12 volt terminal (b) and to coil high
tension post (a). Reading should be between
7800 and 8800 ohms. If it reads outside of this
range, replace coil.
Testing Pickup Coil

a - Connector
b - GREEN Lead
c - WHITE Lead
d - Distributor Housing
1. Remove distributor cap.
2. Identify the two pickup coil leads. On almost all
applications these two leads are one WHITE and
one GREEN. Remove the connector that houses
these two leads from the module.
3. Set ohmmeter to “Rx1” scale. Connect one lead
of ohmmeter to WHITE lead and the other to dis-
tributor housing. Reading should be infinite. If not,
replace pickup coil.
4. Repeat Step 3 with ohmmeter connected to
GREEN lead. Reading should be infinite. If not,
replace pickup coil.
5. Set ohmmeter to “Rx100” scale. Connect ohm-
meter to GREEN and WHITE pickup coil leads.
Reading should be constant, unchanging value in
the range of 500-1500 ohms. If not, replace pick-
up coil. Be certain to flex leads by hand during this
test to locate possible intermittent “open” circuits
(loss of continuity). If any exist, replace pickup
coil.
