That doesn't make good nonsense. The primary winding of a HEI coil has approximately 1/2 Ohm of resistance. When the power transistors in the control module start current flowing through the primary winding, before the inductive reactance kicks in to limit current flow, that's somewhere in the neighborhood of 28 amps for a few milliseconds. That's close to "dead short" current. Or, did someone repeal Ohm's Law?
