SPARK PLUG CABLE TEST
NWGIGB
Hold the spark plug cable about 6-8 mm (.24-.31 in.) away from
engine proper (grounding portion such as cylinder block) and crank
engine to verify that sparks are produced.
SPARK PLUG TIEST
NOUGIHB
Connect the spark plug to the high tension cable, ground outer
electrode (main body), and crank engine. In the atmosphere, only
short sparks are produced because of small discharge gap. If the
spark plug is good, however, sparks will occur in discharge gap
(between electrodes). In a defective spark plug, no sparks will
occur because of leak of insulation puncture.
