Mini Spark Tester FAQ
http://www.thetoolwarehouse.net/shop/THE-404.html
1. Adjust spark tool for 20,000 volts
2. Remove spark plug wire from coil and insert tester
3. Connect alligator clip to plug wire
4. Start engine
5. Observe color/intensity of spark
6. Increase from idle to 5000 RPM
7. Listen for signs of missing or arcing
8. Repeat for the other coil wires and compare results
NOTE: Follow instructions on tester and be very careful especially if you see any arcing on the wires indicating a problem with the insulation. If you touch a wire that is arcing you could get a terrible shock.
