Have a 86 accord lx, auto, 2bbl keihin carb

I tested my ignition coil not sure if my specs came out right. Can someone tell me if I set my meter correctly? Would really help me.

Honda manual says:

Primary winding resistance for terminal A and D:
1.215-1.485 ohms

Secondary winding resistance for terminal A and secondary winding resistance:
11.074-11.526 ohms

Resistance Between B and D terminal:
2.200 ohms

Check for continuity between A and C
------------------------------------------------------
Mines tested as:

A and D: 1.6
meter was set at 200 ohms

A and secondary: 11.91 ohms
meter was set at 20K

B and D: 2.17
meter was set at 20K ohms

Continuity 003

Were my meter setting right or did I get a wrong reading? If my meter settings are wrong could you give me correct settings for meter.

Looks like it's getting a little tired. If it helps, the different ranges on your meter just move the decimal on the screen to a different spot. Just set it to where you're getting something within the range of what you are looking for.

What are the symptoms you're dealing with?
