All 4-CYL Models: Spark

  1. Crank engine. Check for a strong Blue spark at coil wire (if applicable) and at each spark plug wire by using a low voltage spark tester (or holding wire 5/16" from ground). Ensure spark plug wire resistance of each wire is 4880 per foot.
  2. Disconnect and inspect all related ignition system connectors and harness. Clean or repair as necessary and recheck SPARK. If still no spark, go to next step.
