    How can i test my coil to see if its putting out the right amount of volts?
    just run a multimeter from the positive & negative? (what reading should i get? 12v?)
    or do i need to test the actual coil lead socket itself then ground elsewhere?

    cheers

    Hahaha um your coil should pump at around 20,000-45,000 volts. Try doing that with your multimeter, i don't think so.

    search for the 4age manual, plenty of copies on the net.

    testing a coil is all about resistance testing i believe
