An ohms test on an ignition wire is pretty hit and miss, install good quality ignition wires and continue checking the rest of the options!

I got about 1 yr/20000 mi on these plugs and wires, put new autolite xp iridium plugs in according to oriley parts guy is what book calls for. the old plug in number 3 had ceramic broken around eletrode but no other damage to it

just did a visual spark check, saw arc from number 1 but not 3, fixed that, pulled 1 and 3 plugs, everything looked good, swaped fuel injectors 1 and 3, erased codes, took it for a drive got same p0303 code
