ok, i just went outside and did some resistance checks on my coil since i cant seem to get a good look at the coil itself (or can you? i dont know..i took it out and didnt really see any way in the box). all the tests checked out to spec's except for the primary resistance. it tested about 0.2ohms where the book says it should be between 0.6 and 0.8. i'm not sure if that means anything at all. ok, and I havent really been keeping track of when it doesnt start, but as i think about it, its usually during the daytime so i guess the interior is hot, so maybe its that master relay...wasnt there a recall on those or something? thought i read that somewhere. the fuel pump is not abnormally noisy.
