(was) 1987 5KTQ Coil Test

[DeWitt Harrison]

Hi Doyt.

I'll check this out on Monday and get back to you. Both my
documentation and my car are down at the shop where I putter
around with such things and I'll most likely not be able to get down
there before then. In the meanwhile, this problem does leave a code
so you could have a look at that, i.e. see if you do get an error
code at all.

Best regards,

DeWitt
