Are my coils bad??

I was checking the resistance of my coils with a ohmeter and, on the leading coil I got 00.3 and on the trailing coil I got 00.6. Are my coils going bad? any help would be appreciated

As long as your car runs, its getting spark, so the coils are ok. Ive worked on FCs 3+ years adn 40+ cars, and have never seen or heard of a coil going bad.

IF youre worried, I have about 5 extra sets Ill sell you cheap.

They should be below 1 ohm, so they measure O.K. They could still act up in operation or when hot, however, so resistance alone doesn't really tell you they are good.
