368-6232: Inline Spark Tester

An Inline Spark Tester is a tool used to evaluate the performance of an ignition system in engines. It is connected between the spark plug and the ignition coil to allow the user to visually inspect the spark without removing the spark plug. The tester features a transparent chamber where the spark can be observed. When the engine is cranked, the tester allows a spark to jump the gap inside its chamber, indicating whether the ignition system is producing a strong and consistent spark. This tool is used for diagnosing misfires, weak sparks, and complete ignition failures. Attributes: • Provided with a transparent body for easy spark visibility. • Minimizes risk of electric shock. • Identifies weak and no spark conditions. Applications: An Inline Spark Tester is located between the spark plug and the ignition coil during testing. It is used to provide a quick and accurate method for diagnosing ignition system problems by allowing visual inspection of the spark, technicians can determine if the ignition system is functioning correctly and if there are issues such as weak or intermittent sparks that could lead to engine performance.
