How do I test My Coil

[dnoftz]

Need to test a coil to see if I have a week spark. How would I go about doing this?

With a test light plugged into the plug boot and other side grounded, or jumper a wire onto the orange wire (i think thats the color that goes to the coil). then kick your heart out.

Also can ohm out the coil primary and secondary....

stick your little finger in the boot and kick, if you stay on the bike......you have weak spark

Probably a good way. I checked 2 coils useing an Ohm meter and they both tested bad when they were both good coils , so i dont know man. I know for a fact i aint the only one who has got the same bad results with a good coil.:-/

Im actually checking it on a moto 4. It will pull start very easy but when I try to electric start it wont start. I was reading in a forum that a guy had the same problem but put a new coil on it and doesn't have any problems now. so Thought Id see if it has a weak spark

them ohm tests are sketchy at best ????
