Spark plug wire test...Please help with the #s I'm getting from the multimeter
I set the multimeter to the OHM setting of 20k, and proceeded to check the resistance.
All the wires came in at about 4-8 ohms, does this mean they're still within spec? Helms says that if it's above 25, i'd have to repace them, but I was imagining that my numbers would be somewhat closer to the 20s.

If they are all reading the same then they are all providing equal spark, I say they are working just right.

I concur. If they are ohming withing spec, then fight the urge of spending money on a new set, buy some beer instead.
