Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting Testing Coil Pack and Wires

First off, I tried searching and couldn't find what I was looking for . . .

I want to test my coil pack and wires. What should the coil pack measure when I test with DVM? What about the plug wires? Also, this might sound silly, what is the firing order on the coil pack?

I have a 2000 SVT.

Thanks!!

From Alldata for 2000 2.5L V6 24valve (Vin G):

Primary resistance: less than 5 ohms
Secondary resistance: 10-14.5 Kohms
plug wires: less than 7 Kohms per foot
spark plugs: 2-20 Kohms

Ignition system is waste-spark so cylinders 1 and 5 spark together, 2 and 6 spark together, and 3 and 4 spark together.

Thanks for the info! I did a few more searches and found a cross-search for the other info I wanted; Firing order

I figure I'd post it here so next time I'm needing it, it'll be easier for me to find.
