[QUOTE="BlueGrassTornado, post: 170050, member: 8795"] Not sure what I'm going to do, probably bite the bullet and drop the engine and replace the entire kit and kaboodle. I'm telling you, these wires are original, and they're shot, broken in several places, cracked, frayed, just junk. I don't know what I would splice too, because there isn't any "good wire" left, and you would still have to remove the coil to replace it anyways, correct? You can't reach down under there, even with the gas tank out, and fashion any kind of repair on the end of the coil, correct? You've have to be a real magician to pull that off, I think I'll do it the conventional way. I actually found an NOS coil/wire/plug unit on eBay last night and bought it, and then ordered an aftermarket replacement also. I've got 2 H's, maybe I can get one of the original coils firing and not have to replace them both, like I've read before, it's very rare for the coil to actually fail, but that wiring is worn out as worn out can be, has to be replaced. No luck with spark on either so far. :( [/QUOTE]
