VERY common on HFM/SFI Waste Spark/DIS Ignition systems.

Well, you would know from experience, but my coils have been through a lot of abuse (e.g., water, after washing motor several times), and despite all of that, always tested fine.

I figure the plug wires will eventually succumb to age, whereas the coils are a more expensive proposition if you are just swapping them out without knowing which one is bad...
