I have a 94 Nissan Altima I am thinking my ignition coil is bad. When I look for a replacement coil part number, its asks me if I have a Hap or Hashan type coil. Can anyone tell me how to know which one I have? I did the resistance coil test. the coil is about 1000 ohms higher than my haynes manual says it should be. after I drive it for about a block , after cars heat up, the resistance on the secondary increases about 3000 ohms. is that normal? Does it sound like the coils is bad?

look at your ignition coil. sorry can't tell you what you got without looking at your car buddy. 1k ohms higher than allowed is a bit too much. time to replace the part.
