Depending on how many cigarettes you are smoking every day, you may have either a small or large amount of nicotine in your system. As a guide, nicotine usually lasts between 2 to 14 days in the urine, 2 to 15 days in the blood, 1 to 4 days in the saliva, and between 30 to 90+ days from last use of nicotine products.
Coil resistance? My book says my coil resistance should be 4.0 Ohms (+/- 10%) on the primary and 9.5K on the secondary (+/- 20%). Unfortunately, I get 2.9 and 2.7 Ohms (more than 25% off) and 20K to 18K (like 100% off). Any time I use the electric starter on a cold, choked engine, my plugs like to foul.
If it's bad, you'll get a weak spark or no spark at all. To test the coil's secondary winding, attach the test probes to the outer 12V pole and the center pole (where the main wire goes to the distributor). Determine the resistance and check to see if it's within the range indicated in your repair manual.he primary winding of your ignition coil is the first to receive voltage from the battery. Find the resistance specifications for your car's primary coil winding in your repair manual.
