    Set your meter to any ohm range. 200 is fine. Any reading greater than zero between terminals one and two, and one and three, and two and three indicate good. If any of those readings are zero on your meter then you have a bad coil.

    At least thats how I'm reading this.

    You are actually testing for continuity, not an actual ohm (resistance) reading. According to the text, as long as those terminals in that combination have continuity, yer good. And any number between 0 and infinity demonstrates continuity.

    Figured it out.....

    A final summary to my PO300 code. After replacing air filter, fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, cleaning EGR, EGR tube, and trottlebody body, and still having poor acceleration, and performance, I was down to either fuel pump, or catalytic converters. I found a muffler shop that would test the pressure fore and aft converter. Passenger side had 1/4# restriction, riverside had 10# restriction!!!! This is the side I had the blown head gasket in December. I guess it just took a while to fAil, but never got a code other than PO300.
    So same muffler shop got me out the door 250.00 with an aftermarket cat!
    Truck is running great again, like the day I bought it!!!
    One of my pet peeves is someone having a problem, posting said problem, discussing said problem, and then never posting solution, or if it ever even got fixed. So now, I won't tick myself off!

    Sluggish, PO300, poor performance, poor acceleration, chugging, gurgle
