To measure the coil's resistance is fairly simple. Get an ohmmeter touch one of the probes to the coil tower and the other probe to the + termnal.
that would measure secondary resistance- but the OP is looking for primary resistance. secondary resistance would be extremely high- more than 10,000 ohms.
