    testing ignition coil primary

    I'm getting strange readings from two different high quaility electrical meters.

    The high impedance digital Fluke 89-IV starts at zero and climbs up to 0.7ohms, a bit above the Bently spec of 0.5ohms. The other meter, a low impedance analog Simpson 260 gives me a reading of zero.

    The car is running fine. Spark plugs ended up being the cause of a hesitation I was tracking down. Just seems like the coil is posibley a problem for the near future.

    That small difference in resistance isn't significant. I wouldn't worry about the coil.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
