Just trying to confirm the OHM resistance measurement for the ignition coil.
Have measured the primary coil resistance (Black/White -Black) and get 0.9 on coils 1, 2 & 3
Have measured secondary coil resistance (Black/White -High Tension Cord) and get 4.61 to 4.64 on each coil.
I think the secondary coil resistance is within spec but primary coil seems high as spec shows 0.18 - 0.24. Motor has been cutting out under load after about 5-10 minutes on water but doesn't repeat the problem when testing on land. Could the high primary coil resistance cause this to happen? Or is it possible another component is causing this?
