I've the manual for a Kohler SP730S 25 horse. Engine has no fire on either plug. Sat out all winter (shame on me). Ive started with the electrical system. Have the service manual, (lots of Greek). Have a Cen-Tech Digital Meter ((I'm not familiar with the proper use of this particular meter. Attempting a Ohm test on one of two coils, and am cleaning the rust that has accumlated.
I can only get a response (in range) with a test from positions 2 to 4, no other response from the othe test points. Is that coil shot? Or am I just not using the meter correctly?
Second question; The engine is a Vertical shaft, two cylinder, that I thought was only to have one coil (that seemed strange to me). There are coils for each cylinder? What is the correct range in ohms, for these used coils.
Thanks for your help and I hope I've given enought details.
