After some inquires to someone that does stock car racing and talking to Bosch, the resistance specifications for the coil do not mean much.

Bosch's response is that if the car runs the coil must me okay. The specifications they list for the vehicle do not match the coil they sell for it.

There is something called a "spark plug tester" that will measure how well the spark plug fires and that is the end result desired. No one knows how this impacts the rest of the electrical components like battery, ignition wires and distributor.

So ... now I have an unnecessary new coil.
