Before measuring the current it would be easier to check the coil(s) for
continuity. If there is a faulty component (coil,fuse,wire,switch,etc.)
there will be no current to read and you'll still not know whether or not
the coil in question is good.
Good luck!

the car. If you have a voltmeter that measures current, use it. The current
should spike when you first kick in the O/D and then go to steady state. I
don't know the values, but your manual may give them. Someone on the list
probably has a Lucas trouble shooting guide which should also give the current
values.
Hope this helps.....
