MSD Blaster 2 Coil Test
I'm looking for an ignition miss. In checking my coil I have readings as follows:
Primary side: 1.1 ohms
Secondary side: 4.65 K ohms
I've read readings should be .7 ohms (primary) & 4.7K ohms (secondary).
With this primary reading, is this coil suspect??
Primary side: 1.1 ohms
Secondary side: 4.65 K ohms
I've read readings should be .7 ohms (primary) & 4.7K ohms (secondary).
With this primary reading, is this coil suspect??

best bet would be to ask MSD but check this link

Is there a reason you're using this coil? Do you have an original coil you can plug in for an A-B comparison?

Seems like coil is within specs. Did you pull the plugs to see if one of the cylinders is not firing? Did you do a resistance test on the plug wires? Did you look in the cap and at the rotor for evidence of carbon tracks?
