There are 2 wires in the green sheath. It's a coaxial cable. One center conductor and one outer conductor. You should measure from one conductor to the other and it should be an open circuit.
My 930 died 2 years ago for this exact wire issue. Some folks called it the "green wire of death". The insulation cracked off and the center conductor was allowed to touch the outer conductor and caused the wires to short and no spark and no run.
To properly measure this wire, measure from the CDI connector with all wires in place. You should see a couple hundred ohms which is the internal pickup in the distributor.
Here's a link to my thread of my dead 930:
