I have absolutely no clue about what any of those readings should be, but good troubleshooting advice is to check the simplest things first.
Here are some ideas for simple checks before replacing any parts:
- Are the sparkplugs gapped reasonably?
- Do you have a good ground when checking for spark?
- Are the points clean?
- Is the spark plug wire still in good shape? (No internal or external breaks)
- Are you spinning over the motor quite quickly when testing for spark? There are ignition systems which work fine when the motor is running but won’t spark if the motor is being spun over too slow.
Hope this helps!
