Good post Geo.



First, don't put all your eggs in one basket. By no means do I rely on just a ohm reading. Relying on OEM trouble charts early on This was one of my pet peeves. Ohm this ohm that ohm till ell freezes over. If all fails replace the ECM/part. If they would have just told us what the voltage should be life would have been good. That info was out there it just was not available to a independent in OEM form.



I did not throw my ohm meter away : ) It still comes in handy for a quick check. OK time to kill wire the solenoid up let it get warm and check the ohms. For the poor boys and giggles.



Lets use that useless ohm meter to check you new solenoid, For the poor boys and giggles.



With so much high tech equipment on hand I can tell ya a simple ohm check on a new/rebuilt part would have saved me countless lost of billable hours.



I feel I may have coined this phrase as I do get some strange looks from highly accredited instructors when I take an on going training class.



A ohm meter can tell you its bad but it can't tell ya if its good. Let that sink in and don't throw away that ohm meter.



My shop ice maker quit years ago a simple ohm check of the water valve is all I needed to confirm the solenoid was bad/good.



I put a rebuilt engine in a 94 Toyota truck as always I put a set of rebuilt injectors on it. It was a dud no power it ran great just low on power. Long story short If I had only ohm the new injectors while I had them in my hand.



Don't throw away they ohm meter yet : )

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a ...
