With the old points type ignitions here are some typical parameters . . .  This is for an old Stihl 010

Condenser value .17 uf

Coil primary resistance .8 -1.3 ohms
coil secondary resistance 7.2K - 8.8K ohms

Point gap .012" - .016"

23 - 24 degress BTDC

Spark plug gap .020" - .025"

Coil to flywheel gap is the thickness of an appointment or plain business card - about .010"
