Bob is right, but may be wrong!
He has given you the static current which will be correct as it will act as a resistance in this case. However you need to know the dwell angle when running and as if we assume it is 50%, then current draw, when running, will be 2 amps or so, depending on the actual dwell angle and the coil impedance characteristics. Impedance is not really important for a single cylinder engine, but much more important for a high revving multi-cylinder.
