Hi all, just tested my coil packs and am getting 12.5k on one, and 11.5k on the other. would 11.5k be enough to say its had it. i would have though the resistance getting higher would be a problem, but i dont know much about this stuff. car wont start most of the time, and when it does, its running like its only running on 4 cylinders. all in a previous thread. haha. thanks in advance.

12.5k is correct. old camry coils measure less.

I would be suspicious that the 11.5k coil has shorted turns
