Is my OEM military ignition coil still good?

Post by mm58 »

I'm trying to find out if my military ignition coil is still up to snuff.
I did a test and came up with 5 ohms for the primary windings,
and 13.17k ohms on the secondary.

Does anybody know what the specs are supposed to be?

Thanks much

Mike
