    Coil bad?

    I bought a 202 coil at a swap meet. The guy didn't know if worked or not. I measured it and the primary resistance is about 1.5-1.6 Ohms and the secondary resistance is about 11,600 Ohms. My service manual says 1.24-1.46 for the primary and 6500-9500 for the secondary. I can't test it in my Corvette at this time. Is it bad or worth keeping to try out in my car? Thanks in advance

    Nick,
    Don't throw it away. The only way I know of to properly test an ignition coil is to run it on a car and get it nice and hot. Contunity tests are not fully reliable. You can put that #202 on any car to test it.
