To measure the resistance of a coil pack, set your multimeter to the ohms (Ω) setting. For most coil packs, a range of 200Ω to 2kΩ is appropriate, depending on the specifications of the coil. Connect the multimeter probes to the terminals of the coil pack, ensuring a good contact, and note the reading. If the resistance is outside the manufacturer's specified range, the coil pack may be faulty and should be replaced.
Depending on the accuracy of your Ohm meter, yes... it could very well be shorted.

Looking for coil ohms and stator ohms. And possibly the voltage comming out of the stator .
Is that zero ohms measured in circuit or out of circuit? To get an accurate reading it needs to be out of circuit. Next, which scale did you use on the meter? If you're measuring on the 5k ohm scale, you won't get much useful information about your pickup coil or high voltage coil. On the other hand, if you're getting zero ohms and you're on the right scale, the coil is probably shorted internally.
Yes, you can check an ignition coil with an ohmmeter by measuring its primary and secondary windings' resistance. For the primary winding, connect the ohmmeter leads to the terminals and check for resistance, which typically ranges from 0.5 to 2 ohms. For the secondary winding, connect one lead to the high-voltage terminal and the other to the primary terminal, expecting a resistance reading in the range of several thousand ohms, depending on the coil specifications. If the readings are significantly outside these ranges, the ignition coil may be faulty.
The coil on the relay should read about 70 ohms

When checking a resistive element coil for continuity, the selector switch on the multimeter should be set to the ohms (Ω) setting. This allows you to measure the resistance of the coil, confirming if there is continuity. If the meter shows a low resistance value, the coil is intact; a reading of infinity indicates a break in the coil.
The ohms value at the stator and signal coil can vary depending on the specific make and model of the engine or generator. Typically, a stator coil may have a resistance ranging from a few ohms to several hundred ohms, while a signal coil often has a lower resistance, usually between 100 to 400 ohms. It's essential to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for precise values, as they can differ significantly between different systems. Always use a multimeter to measure the resistance for accurate readings.
