Hi People

 

One of my ignition coils is faulty on my 1998 4TXL, its secondary side resistance is 10MOhms, anyway I ordered a replacement from Wemoto and when its arrived its primary resistance is only 1.6 Ohms whereas the service manual states its should be between 3.4 - 4.6 Ohms, the other working coil measures 4.2 Ohms so is ok.  Having looked online for a replacement, none of them seem to specify what the coil resistances are so I'm a bit stumped as to which one to buy.  Can anyone offer me some advice?

 

Cheers

Tony
