Running rich and sloppy idle due to bad coils?
Just wondering if it could be, all my coils measure over 1 ohm, and I am running extremely rich, with a DP, MP, PULLIES, INTAKE, and NON SEQ... the idle is a bit sloppy and i feel it kinda miss every few seconds. I have brand new plugs and wires... so im rulin that out!

If the leading coil is totally bad it won't idle at all without you revving it a bit. Would also miss a bit when flooring it.
