I have now checked them out.  Three are good, one measure o/c on one o/p and
has a weak spark,  the other is o/c on the input but one of the connections
freely rotates.  I am thinking that may be reparable. Its a compact unit
with HV bushing both at one end actually 9kV/30ma. Should make a nice mini
coil.
