A few years ago I put a Pazon sure fire in my BSA Shooting Star. The paperwork with it said to make sure the 12 V coil was between 3 and 4.5 ohms. The stock one on my bike was closer to five so I thought I would buy a coil from Pazon just to make sure I had one that would work the best with their unit. So I ordered one and when I got here it tested out at 6 OMS. I just left the stock one in my bike and I have been using it all this time but recently have had some symptoms that are common to coil failure like the bike starting and idling fine but after ridding about 5 miles it starts not wanting to idle when it's hot. Since I still have this unused Pazon coil (truely a Emgo with a Pazon sticker on it) I thought I would switch them out to see if that was the problem. But since it tests out at 6 ohms I was wondering if that itself will be a problem or just not optimal? Does anyone know if this really matters that much?
