coil question and wires

Hey guys,
The other day I asked a question regarding ohms for my plug wires, but it was in mega ohms, I checked them today with Kilo ohms, In the book it says to check them with the plug as well, The values I got are listed below but without the plug in it, when I put the plug in it goes to zero. Am I doing something wrong.

coil wire 1.001
#1 2.85
#2 3.14
#3 2.96
#4 3.08
#5 3.12
#6 3.18
#7 2.92
#8 3.21

I looked in the book also and did a coil check with the ohm meter, between terminal 1 and 15 should read .33-.46 ohm and I got .5,
between terminal 1 and 4 should be 7-12 k ohms, I got over limit. Does my battery have to be in and connected to do this because mine is out on the charger, I don't think it has to be in but I am not 100% sure. If I am right does this mean that my coil is screwed, when my battery was good I was getting spark though, this is where I am confused. Thanks for your help
