Return it. Spec is a range from 575 to 700 ohms (640 plus or minus 10%) between pins 1 & 2.

The Bentley is wrong, they quote 1280. That's actually for the cam position sensor.

The updated spam filters are very tough about posts from new users. The board will flag posts and prevent members from seeing them.

When I see legitimate "moderated" posts I've been approving them, but I only check the board out a few times throughout the day...unless I'm on vacation...so it can take a while before I get to them. They'll appear after I approve them. I'll delete posts with duplicate info.
