The coil resistance should be
0.5 - 0.9 Ohms between both posts
and 7200 - 8200 Ohms (or 7.2K and 8.2K Ohms) between the center tap and the positive post.
This is shown an page 23-2 of "Electrical System - Technical Data" or the shop manual.
There is a complete diagnostic walkthrough of the ignition system in section 340 of the manual that includes these test values. There is some interesting tests for the resistance of the rotor and the spark plug leads which could help isolate the problem.
