before you test your coil did you touch both probes together and minus that reading from your coiled results on a lot of multimeters they will differ. mine is .5 which i minus off the end result so a 2 ohm reading would be 1.5 in reality

I normally use 2mm, give it half a tank or so to bed in then it should get better.

In answer to your question, yes- that's the only test you really need to perform. If the coil set up is a dud then the multimeter will tell you via the ohms reading. if it's reading 2ohms then all's good and you can screw it onto your battery.
