Default Coil - Good or Bad

92 Honda accord, missing terribly at idle and at all rpms. Tested the coil based on these numbers.
Resistance accross terminals A-C should be .6 - .8
Terminal A and Secondary Terminal should be 14k - 22k.
Terminals B - D should be 2,090 - 2,310

Everything was within range on the coil except for terminals a-c was .2. I bought a new coil and for the heck of it, I tested the new one. Everything was about the same as the old and a-c was .2. Did I get a bad coil or what is going on? Am I using the wrong specs? Thoughts?

Have you checked for any stored codes?

Are the other "tune up" items up to date - cap, rotor, plugs, inspect wires.

No codes now, did have an O2 Sensor code but replaced that but still misfiring. I was going to do plugs and wires along with the coil. Although they are only a little over a year old. Was trying to debate if I need to do the coil now or return it.
