The coil is going to have a very high resistance. OL sounds like overload, possibly a problem with your meter. It also looks as though it is putting out plenty from when you took the wires off. Jumping 1/4" with a strong arc is good in my opinion. Check your plug wires to make sure they are good. Also look at your plugs. Check gap and condition. If its nothing in the electrical department then internals is what your looking at. You do have 260k miles on it.

Sounds like rod knock to me, maybe even more than one rod. Drain your oil and see if it has gold in it.

 

Sometimes timing belt idlers can go bad and make knocking sounds. This doesn't sound like one, but I had a belt idler I could swear was a rod knock. I was completely certain, as were other people. Both on a video and in person.

In the OHM setting, OL means Open Lead. Ie. it's either not connected to anything, or the resistance is higher than your current range setting.

 

OL means overload when you have it in a volt or amp setting.

yes, i does drain oil and there nothin damage from metal...but i smell gas mix with fuel.. i dont think there no pinion slap...

so, i have to check tensioner on tomorrow. if so...how i can get problem solving for tensioner? just need tighter blots or adjuster?

 

Engine restore wont fix that. You have to find out what the source is. Did you drain oil or look under timing belt covers to see if you have internal damage or if its just a tensioner?

flex plate? maybe it's bend? i think so... cuz i was use long drive into flex plate for removed crankshaft pully. but im highly doubt.

 

sounds like the flex plate is cracked or broken dosent sound like bottom end check flex plate bolts

Tensioner looks fine to me.

 

I still wanna say valve lash is out of spec.

What's the story for this engine? How long has it been in the car? Is it a recent rebuild? Head gasket job?

 

i was repair fuel injection o-ring kits. somehow i was start but there stuck like a lock becuz of flood...so, waiting around 10 mins later...i start again and there got a noise lately. (maybe pinion damage?t)

before i was repair head gasket...

top is intake camshaft.

bottle is exhaust camshaft. (both of them)

 

valve lash....mmmm...maybe mess it up?
