IGNITION SYSTEM-Service Adjustment Procedures 8-113
SPARK TEST - ENGINE CANNOT BE CRANKED
If spark test is performed by cranking while the catalyst is hot,
unburned gas will be supplied to the catalyst, and this is not de-
sirable to the catalyst.
For this reason, use the following methods which allow spark test
to be performed without cranking.
1. Remove the distributor cap.
2. Check signal rotor position in relation to the pick-up. If it is not
the position shown in the illustration, turn the crankshaft man-
ually so that the projection of the signal rotor is moved away
from the center part of the pick-up. In order words, the signal
rotor should be positioned so that current can flow to the
ignition coil.
3. Disconnect the high tension cable from the center tower of
the distributor cap, and hold the end of the cable about 5 - 10
mm (.2 - .4 in.) away from the cylinder block of the engine.
4. Turn the ignition switch to “ON”. Then, when a piece of metal
(the tip of a screwdriver for instance) is inserted into the de-
tection coil of the pick-up and then moved away, a spak can be
generated.

the screw thread of the plugs is blown out by compressed
air.
5. Using the plug gap gauge, check whether the plug gap reading
is normal, and if not, adjust it.
Standard value : 1.0-1.1 mm (.039-.043 in.)
CHECKING SPARK PLUG CABLE
(1) Check that there are no cracks in the cap or in the insulating
coating.
(2) Ctieck the resistance value.

CHECKING THE IGNITION COIL
(1) Measurement of the resistance of the external resistor
Measure the resistance of the external resistor. Standard value : 1.2-1.4 IR
(2) Measurement of the resistance of the primary coil
Measure the resistance between the positive (+) terminal
and the negative (-) terminal of the ignition coil. Standard value : 1.1-1.3 IR
(3) Measurement of the resistance of the secondary coil
Measure the resistance between the high voltage terminal
and the positive (+) terminal of the ignition coil. Standard value : 14.5-19.5 kfl

AUTOMATIC FREE-WHEELING HUB INDICATOR SYSTEM - Generallnformation 8-211
3. Automatic free-wheeling hub in free condition
For the free condition, although there are (when the vehicle is traveling) output signals from the vehicle-
speed sensor, there are no signals from the pulse generator, with the result that the memory circuit is
erased (because reset signals are output from the lock-discrimination circuit), and so the indicaotr light
does not illuminate.

Front out-
put shaft
16W1546 The pulse generator is located at the rear part of the front
output shaft of the transfer, and is composed of the magnet,
the coil and the pole (iron core).
When a magnetic material (iron, nickel, etc.) is brought close
to and moved away from the pole (iron core), the magnetic flux
within the pole changes, thus generating AC voltage in the
coil.
Because the front output shaft does not rotate when the
automatic free-wheeling hub is in the free condition, there is
no generation of AC voltage in the pulse generator.
In the locked condition, however, the front output shaft and
the pulse rotor rotate, with the result that the magnetic flux
(within the p o e I (’ Iron core) of the pulse generator) changes in
accordance with the rotations of the pulse rotor, thereby
generating AC voltage in the coil.
This AC voltage is transmitted to the automatic free-wheeling
hub indicator control unit.
