Allright making headway. I checked with the ICM diconnected and the fuse didnt blow..

I checked with the ICM connected and the coils off and the fuse didn't blow.

Now, I need to know, what setting to set my volt thing to to test the coils. I looked at the tech info, but mine is a bit different.

I think that'* very good news. You'll be testing the coils for resistance, use the ohm setting. If you're not sure where to set it repost the link to the picture of the meter

6 o'clock position (200 ohms) for the primary (bottom connections) and then about 7 o'clock (20k) for the secondary.

I think I did it
top of my coils 1-4 is 6.06
2-5 is 6.06
3-6 is 5.95

Bottom of coil is
1-4 is 1.3
2-5 is 1.3
3-6 is 1.3

I used ohm setting on the top of 20
and ohm setting of 200 on the bottom

Ok thats what I got...

They look OK. Try putting them on one at a time & see if the fuse blows.

Are you referring to the readings of 1.3?
