CONDENSER TESTING The ignition analyzer provides three tests of condenser condition: condenser leakage, condenser resistance, and condenser capaCityRefer to Section of this manual for condenser specificationThe condenser may be tested while mounted on the breaker plate by disconnecting the lead from the breaker assemblyConnect one test lead to the breaker plate (or the condenser mounting clip if test is made off the plate) and connect second test lead to condenser pigtail leadThe condenser should be replaced if it fails to meet any of the three testsSee Figure 4-15 555 4
Figure 4-13Testing Coil the meter, will fall within the green ("good") area, with primary current adjusted as specifiedConnect the black primary lead from the analyzer to the coil's ground lead, and connect the red primary lead from the analyzer to the coil's breaker point leadConnect the secondary lead from the analyzer to the coil's secondary terminalSee Figure 4-13A low reading on the tester indicates weak coil which must be replacedNo attempt should be made to improve this reading by increasing primary current; the coil is defective if it cannot be made to give good reading on the specified primary currentA completely dead coil is indicated if there is no readingCheck for leakage from the coil (caused by mOisture, cracks in the coil housing, or carbon paths) by running the test probe over the outside of the coilReplace any coil which shows any leakageSee Figure 4-14
