Q
how to check small engine coil
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
To check a small engine coil, which is essential for starting your engine, you'll need a multimeter. First, ensure the engine is off and cool. Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the coil if necessary for easier access. Set your multimeter to the ohms (Ω) setting to measure resistance. Test between the coil's input (power) terminal and the output terminal where the spark plug wire connects. Typical good values range from a few thousand ohms to around 15,000 ohms, but refer to your engine's manual for specific values. Values vastly outside this range might indicate a bad coil. Additionally, inspect the coil visually for cracks or damage, which can also lead to failure. It's a straightforward test, but treat it with care, following safety procedures and manufacturer-specific guidelines.
