guys,
wat is the spec of wira ignition cable resistance(aka spark plug cable)??
i checked mine, 3 of them has 550~1500ohm, but one of it has only 80 ohm
(cable#2).
i had comfirmed a few times for this cable, yet, it`s only 80 ohm.
can anyone advice pls?? is it faulty?
as i read from some threads, faulty cable is related with car jerking.
TIA

Yup, weak coil cable can cause jerking to car. How you test out the ohm ?

The lower the "ohm", the lower the resistance. So, isn't that good?

*update*
i bought a 2nd hand ignition cables (used 2 months).
resistance of new cables (cable# printed on cable):
cable1: 175
cable2: 70
cable3: 70
cable4: 55
rechecked my old cables (used for 3.8 years):
cable1: 2800
cable2: 80
cable3: 15000
cable4: 1000
guess we have info about faulty cable

g88,
sorry, coil cable? he means spark plug cable.
ranii,
for spark plug cable, which is low in current bigh in voltage, require
high resistance. V = IR remember?

my 9yrs old wira ignition/spark cables resistance:
cable#1 - #3 : 50-57K ohm
cable#4: 75K ohm.
that is very high resistance compared to what JIGC has mention earlier.
anyone can confirm this on their newer wira before i change mine ?

king!
from workshop manual:
cable (from right to left side) 1, 2, 3 & 4 /kOhm: 11.5, 9.1, 9, 6.6
note: #1 is the longest cable.
urs cable has very high resistance, my last reading has very low
resistance....mmhhhh....
i'll recheck my old IG cable.
