HI

Anyone with a S2 R33 and splitfires, WITH A MULTIMETER, got to their splitfire coils and do a resistance reading between the ground, center plug and the LH one when looking at the coil, for the coil. ALSO tell me what the mulitmeter was set at? i have 20, 200, 2000, 20k, 200k, and 2000k ohms.

I tested mine and i get 1600ohms, when the mulitmeter is set to 2000ohm reading. The AUTO electritian told me it has to be 0.9 ohms, and that is near imposible.

This is to do with my other thread, i can't seam to fix my car. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=151261

Because you have a series 2, the coils on your car differ greatly from an older car's coil. Yours has the transistor drive built into the coil package, whereas the earlier engines had a seperate transistor pack.

On the older, seperate transistor, coil engines the reading on the primary side should be about 0.9Ω.

On your car you are trying to read through the transistor as well as the coil winding, so your reading will be a lot different.

Use your diode test on your meter, and go between pins 1 and 2, both ways round. Compare the reading you get with the other 5 coils. See wether there is a variation between the set.

Hope that helps at all.

Sorry to dig up an old thread like this but i am also keen on knowing this!

I have a similar problem. I just want to know whether the reading should be between .6-.9ohms.. can anyone confirm??
