Not to be pedantic but ignition coils don't actually have a resistor inside them do they, but a resistance based on the number of turns in the primary winding?

There is so much confusion on the collector boards about ignition coils, they need to be measured between terminals so the user is certain of what he is installing. The resistance is what determines how much current (amperes) flows through the circuit.
