- Disconnect the coil wire from distributor. Hold the coil wire end
about 1 /2 inch (12.5mm) from a good body ground; check if spark occurs
while engine is being cranked.
•Crank the engine for no more than 2 seconds at a time to prevent
flooding the engine with gasoline. - If good spark does not occur (should be bright blue), follow the cor-
rect diagnostic flow chart (engine and year) and necessary service proce-
dures. If good spark does occur, the ignition system is probably not at fault.
SIGNAL GENERATOR AIR GAP INSPECTION
I See Figures 7 and 8
—The air gap in the distributor should be check periodically. Dis-
tributor air gap may only be checked and can only be adjusted by
component replacement.
- Remove the hold-down bolts from the top of the distributor cap.
- Remove the distributor cap from the housing without disconnecting
the ignition wires. - Pull the ignition rotor (not the signal rotor) straight up and remove it.
If the contacts are worn, pitted or burnt, replace it. Do not file the contacts.
Fig. 7 Measure the air gap in this position with a non-ferrous
feeler gauge—2TZ-FE engines
