OK, so at this point is it safe for me to conclude that no problems were found with the resistance readings on the coils….Yes, I know, just cuz the resistance specs are OK, does not mean the coil will fire correctly or is not arcing to ground somewhere….
Again, I see a few sets of coils there. Why was the first set of coils replaced? Did the engine have the same spark problem before and after doing all this work?
Don’t mean to repeat myself, and perhaps others have mentioned this, but there have been reports about new coils (not OEM) having laminations that are not manufactured correctly making it impossible to set the lamination air gap properly. I see you have a coil locating tool there, which is great. Simply place the coil into the locating tool to see if the laminations fit properly against the locating tool.
