  1. Can someone with a working GB2 or the original GB 6.5" coil check with a meter what resistance you get between what pins.

    I received what looks to be now or very slightly used 6.5 inch coil, problem is I get no response to metal/gold with it. I checked my working 10" coil and a new (seems to be working) 14" coil and they share the same pinout and similar resistances. I'm using cheap cables and my meter only has one decimal resolution so lets say +/- 0.1k resistance.

    Edit 2: Not a GB2 coil. Real GB2 coil has similar resistance and same pinout as the 10 and 14inch coil. Any one want to purchase a 6.5" coil for an unknown machine? It's brand spanking new. I would guess it's a gb or gb pro or a gb clone coil.

    Edit 1: I'm starting to think it's a coil for the original Gold Bug that was purposely or accidentally mislabeled. Anyone with the original gold bug coil care to test their coil for me?

     

    6.5" coil <not working>
    1-3 = 6.3 ohm
    2-4 = 29.7 ohm
    Nothing grounded
    10" coil
    2-3 = 2.2 ohm
    4-5 = 18.7 ohm
    3-Grounded
    14" coil
    2-3 = 2.5 ohm
    4-5 = 18.0 ohm
    3-Grounded
