testing ignition amp output/coil input 200 1992

I've just had the power amplifier on my 93 diagnosed as faulty. Apparently they are known to be sensitive, and can partly fail when cold, damp etc. All I did was remove it, separate from its heat sink, clean off all the corrosion and refit. It works perfectly now. I was advised always to carry a working spare.
Crank sensors too break down with age. Measure the resistance between the centre pin and one of the others - only one will give a reading. I can't remember what the limits are, but my 167 Ohms is apparently fine.
