This is a 6 Volt system. I have a brand new 6V alternator, and a new 6V battery. I have a new and somewhat cheap digital multimeter and an old beater analog multimeter. I have since been told by another respected consultant that the digital does not do all things and an analog may be better. The digital will register Ohms on the secondary( Tower of the Coil) but I get no resistance on the primary, (positive post to negative post), even on lower settings. The analog does register, but I am unable to adjust to needle to see what the ohms are.
The ultimate problem I am trying to solve is getting a good spark. I had weak spark at the points when I tried to start the engine and nothing at the plugs. I wanted to see if the coil was good just to check everything in the system is in good shape.
