It is rather rare to find one of those coils to be bad. If you register a few k-ohms across the secondary. consider it good.
In the overwhelming majority of cases, poor spark is due to dirty points. Take them completely apart, degrease everything, and polish each contact shiny bright. Reassemble and set the gap to .020", and you probably will have good fire. Do the points sets one at a time so you have a sample of how they go together.
