Don't leave the key in the on position to long when the engine is not running when you do the testing or the coil will over heat and be damaged. I don't know what the "official" guideline is. I get antsy when the key is on and the engine is't running after ~ 45 seconds.

On another subject, do you have the Moyer manual? It is a treasure trove of information on the A4. I didn't reread the thread. Maybe it has been mentioned already.
