Dave, for first value do not forget to test your cables readings without coil, and subtract this value from coil readings . I made this error first time... so my coil was inside range but only because i did not subtract cables resistance.

thanks for reply
cheers for that cyberzar

I cant actually take the wire off but measuring a similar length of wire would give the same resistance reading as wire connected to coil?

When i heat up the coil or tap on it the readings change, is this a sign that it's knackered?

thanks
