I broke down the other day. 40 was driving fine and it suddenly died. Could not get it started. After I got back home, removed distributor cover. There was spark at points. I could not get spark at spark plug. I am suspecting coil. Coil is a toyota coil that has little miles on it but is about 10-15 years old.
The F engine manual says that the primary coil should be 3-4 ohms. Secondary 6.750-8.250 ohms (I assume they mean 6,750-8,250 ohms).
My coil primary was reading 1.4 ohms. Secondary 11.86 Kohms.
A spare coil I have was reading 1.2 ohms. Secondary 9.39 kohms.
Are both my coils bad?
