Primary and secondary coil test readings

Here is that procedure:
1.Turn the ignition key "off".
2.Unplug the coil pack from the vehicle harness connector.
3.With the EDIS diagnostic cable negative battery lead connected, disengage the positive lead.
4.Measure the resistance between terminals VBAT + and C1 with a digital volt Ohmmeter (DVOM) set on the two kilohms scale. Refer to the accompanying illustration.
5.If the reading is not greater than 0.4 ohms, replace the coil.
6.Measure the resistance between terminals VBAT + and C2 with a DVOM set on the two kilohms scale. Refer to the accompanying illustration.
7.If the reading is not greater than 0.4 ohms, replace the coil.

Figure 2: Measure the resistance between the EDIS coil pack terminals VBAT + and C1 with a DVOM set on the two kilohms scale.

That does not look right, let me try this.

or maybe this,

That is better

Is it the same for the secondary coil as well? And would happen to know the specs for spark plug wires are?

What secondary coil are you referring to?
Spark plug wires are normally like 7,000 ohms per foot.

The ignition system secondary coil. These car has a electronic distributor-less ignition system (EDIS), but has a distributor and spark plug wires. Can you maybe explain what exactly this means? So would that make it a waste spark or what? The little bit of service information I have been able to find is very confusing.

I think you mean the secondary ignition coil circuit, not necessarily a secondary ignition coil.
The secondary circuit is the high voltage side of the coil packs where the spark plug wires hook into.
Yes this does have a waste spark, "The ignition coil fires two spark plugs simultaneously, one on the compression stroke and one on the exhaust stroke."

Ok, now its starting to make a little more sense. Thank you for your time. I managed to get the tests done. Thanks again.

Did the coil pass? Is the engine running? Why was you wanting to test the ignition in the first place?

A friend's car I've been trying to help them with. Yes the coil passed. It now has a dead battery. So about it running, still waiting to see.

Ok, thanks for letting me know.

Thank you for your help.

You are welcome.

Do you know anything about 142f engines? single cylinder, 4-stroke engine.

No, not really.

Ok, not a problem. Thanks again.

Do you mean the engine used for portable pumps, etc?

Those are small cc engines.
