Pick-Up Coil: Testing and Inspection

***UPDATED BY TSB# EN91-007, JUNE 1991

Pick-up Coil Connector:

1. Disconnect the wiring connector near the distributor.

2. Connect one end of an ohmmeter to the G terminal. Connect the other end to the G- terminal.

G Pickup Coil Resistance: 150 - 230 ohms

3. Connect one end of an ohmmeter to the Ne terminal. Connect the other end to the G- terminal.

NE Pickup Coil Resistance: 150 - 230 ohms

G1 Pick-up Coil Air Gap:

NE Pick-up Coil Air Gap:

4. Using a non magnetic feeler gauge measure the gap between the signal rotor and pickup coil projection.

Air Gap: 0.008 in (0.2 mm) or more

NOTE: The air gap is not adjustable. If any of the above tests reveal a pick-up coil outside specifications, replace the distributor housing assembly.
