Inspect all removed cables for damage. See Figure 8-14. Remove cable straps on horn bracket  Inspect spark plug cables. Replace cables that are worn  Check for loose fit on ignition coil and spark plugs.  Check cable boots/caps for cracks or tears. Replace See Figure 8-15. Check spark plug cable resistance with an ohmmeter. Replace cables not meeting resistance 4750-11,230 ohms for 19.0 in. (483 mm) cable. 1812-4375 ohms for 7.25 in. (184 mm) cable.

                                       NOTE See 1.21 SPARK PLUGS for spark plug information.  Never disconnect a spark plug cable with the engine run- ning. If you disconnect a spark plug cable with the engine running, you may receive an electric shock from the ignition system which could result in death or seri-  When disconnecting each spark plug cable from its spark plug terminal, always grasp and pull on the rubber boot at the end of the cable assembly (as close as possi- ble to the spark plug terminal).
