To avoid extremely high voltage shocks, do not
touch the spark plugs or tester connections.

Turn the ignition switch on and push the lanyard key under
the stop button.

Pushing the starter button, crank the engine 4

to measure the primary peak voltage.

Do not operate the starter for longer than 5 seconds. Wait
15 seconds before using it again.

Repeat the measurements 5 or more times for one ignition
coil.
