High Tension Wire Resistance
Carefully remove ends of wire from spark plug and distributor. Using an ohmmeter, check resistance of wire while gently twisting wire. If resistance is incorrect or fluctuates from infinity to any value, replace wire.
NOTE:
Wire resistance cannot be measured if the wires are marked with this symbol:
