Possible Coil Issues

I have read every post available in the online forums regarding no spark condition in a 24v system.
After the coil tested poorly, 12.5 ohms and 9,000 on secondary, I picked up a new coil along with an electronic system. The coil arrived and bench tested at 12 ohm. After reading that this is a poor ohm reading, I have not put it on the truck to try, but called the provider. They have informed me that these new Chrome coils test at 12 consistently and that it will not be a problem. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments on that? This is a reputable company, that I do not wish to talk poorly about, yet they only seem interested in pointing fingers to the rest of the truck, and not the coil which test out of spec.
Thanks in advance.

Chrome plated coils have a deservedly bad reputation.

Some have had them bad out of the box, others got a little life then nothing.
