David, I tested it with a digital Snap-On ohmmeter. I'll try the analog one. What puzzles me is that on the digital reading I don't see the resistance steadily in/decrease, it just jumps around 1400 ohms plus/minus 200 ohms. All the other resistance tests between the terminals check out fine. I don't think I fully understand what and how the Air Auxiliary Valve works, the one that sits below the passenger side intake manifold. I am gonna try and do a compression check today. And I have a vague feeling about that.
