Out of spec coils

#1 Post by begbie » Sat Apr 20, 2013 7:26 pm

My coils are giving a 12k reading through
The leads and an out of spec reading of
1.1 through the terminals.
Would this cause running issues ?
Anyone care to take a reading from a know
Good running bike for me ?

Were they hot or cold when you metered them? You need to do resistance readings with everything cold. If you run the bike and then meter the components you'll never get accurate results.
