Cool

That's normal.


Worry when it's bent for no reason, jet black, has carbon deposites, or covered in oil.

Im talking about removing the coils, not the spark plugs. In the future, can I test these coils for resistance, like I've done on on my 94 Dodge's coil pack ?

Cool

primary resistance of the Distributorless ignition coil 1mz-fe should be: 0.5 to 0.85 ohms.
So sayeth the 94-95 1mz-fe haynes. Amen.
