Need help with suzuki lt80

Have weak spark on a 87 lt80 I was told to check the ohms on the stator it reads 180 ohms so it's testing good. So I'm thinking the coil but if it's sparking at all I wouldn't think it would be the coil but I obviously don't know please help me out. Thanks

12-17.5 ohms on the coil.
check between the spark plug cap and the spade that the ground connects to.
