2003 Ford Explorer V6 spark plug wire ohm readings
Hey Gents (and ladies),
I have a question regarding my spark plug wires. I can't seem to find out what the resistance across each wire should be but here's what I have:
1- 7.41K
2- 9.81K
3- 11.21K
4- 5.22K
5- 8.26K
6- 10.15K
Does anybody know if this is normal for a 2003 V6 4.0?
-Mike

Now I just have to scratch my head and start from the beginning of my issues.

Lack of acceleration and power. I replaced the knock sensor which helped with the poor acceleration and timing issue, but the acceleration still isn't great but a little better than before.
Replaced the intake manifold gaskets since I was in there anyway b/c there was a slight vacuum leak. Ended up being a cracked/broken gasket.
Intake seems fine. Plug wires look okay. Plugs themselves "visually" look okay.
I'll be replacing the air filter today when I change the oil and leaky radiator.
My next guess is probably replacing the spark plugs just in case.
Any thoughts???

Being a 2003, I personally would replace the Plugs, Wires and Coil Pack. If not already done, I would also put a double dose of fuel system cleaner in a tank of fuel and then replace the fuel filter after running the tank of fuel down to almost empty. Also, by now being a 2003, I would have replaced my coolant 2 times after giving it a good flush. Power steering, Transmission, T-Case (if 4WD) and axle(s) would have new synthetic fluids in them.
However, this is me.
