Ok, so here I am, standing at the front of my RHD motor. Hood open,
fuel distributor to the left or me (RHS of car). What do I look at,
what do I touch, what do I put an ohmmeter to, in what state does
the motor have to be (running/off), what lines are what? And yes,
I am an idiot asking idiot questions. :) I'd just like to know
exactly what I'm looking for instead of me wasting time only to come
back and not having made use of any of the info you have given me. :)
Thanks.
