Engine Will Not Start
Connect voltmeter between battery terminal lead wire at distributor connector and ground. Turn ignition switch on. If voltage is zero, check system for open circuit. If reading is battery voltage, check for spark using Spark Tester (ST-125) connected to one spark plug wire. If spark tester is not available, fabricate one using an old spark plug. See Fig 1. Crank engine while observing spark tester. If sparking occurs, check spark plugs and fuel system. If sparking does not occur, follow procedures under COMPONENT TESTING.
