Is it possible to test the secondary wires from the coil if it is totally disconnected from the bike (ie the coil is in your hand)? I suspect my coils are junk and I have an extra set that I could test but I would like to know if an OHM meter can save me some trouble.
Haynes manual says:
primary winding resistance - 3 to 6 ohms
secondary - 18k to 30k ohms (with plug lead and cap)
" if the reading obtained is not within the range specified, it is likely the coil is defective. "
If withing those ranges, then the coil is pr'olly capable of proper operation .
