Coil Packs!

[SuAvE-1]

Just changed the plugs in my hcr32, thought I'd test the resistance of the packs... On every plug I got 1.3ohms. Unless i'm reading that wrong, aren't they supposed to be 0.6-0.9ohms? (rb20det.com).

Would this be hindering my spark?

Anyone got any input? Thanks.

Nothing that you would notice, or probably even be able to measure; unless it was the weak link causing a fault.

A coil is simply a coil of insulated wire, which can serve many purposes; but the reason the resistance measured lower is because over time with all the heat it sits in, it can melt/join neighbouring coils of wire within the coil.. effectively this makes for a coil with less windings, less windings means less length of wire, which means less resistance.

Which means less stored area and weaker spark?
