<VV> Checking a coil

[John Beck]

Measure the resistance of the primary and secondary windings with an ohm
meter.  The values for a stock coil are printed in the shop manual. 
This will only tell you if the coil is working properly at the time you
test it.  It might not work when hot or vibrating on a running engine.
