    Standard value: 0.58 Ω +/-10%

  2. Measure the secondary coil resistance between the high-voltage terminals for the No. 1 and No. 4 cylinders, and between the high voltage terminals for the No. 2 and No. 3 cylinders.

    Standard value: 8.8 kΩ +/-15%

    CAUTION: Be sure, when measuring the resistance of the secondary coil, to disconnect the connector of the ignition coil.
