coil pack resistance

I just checked the coil packs (front only so far). And 2 were at 0.6 Mohms (infinite on a low range DMM) and the other one was at 3.6 Mohms. I am wondering if that means that this one is drying. I checked at near operating temp, essentailly right after the car wouldn't start up (my warm starting issue).

I know FSM says anything but 0 is okay but that said shouldn't they all be the same? Any help would be great as I need to figure this out before August 7th.

Also when I checked terminals 2,3 I got a different number for that same coil...

You want to look for a difference in coil packs more so than an absolute number. If one is deviating a fair amount, consider that one suspect.
