DISTRIBUTOR SOLENOID VALVE TEST

  1. Start the engine and allow it to idle.
  2. Separate the connector at the distributor solenoid valve and apply battery power to the terminals to energize the valve.
  3. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the vacuum advance unit. There should be no vacuum at the hose.
  4. Remove the battery power to the solenoid valve. The valve is operating properly if air is drawn (by vacuum) into the vacuum hose as soon as power is removed.
