Slight modification to ASH's Ignition coil fix

(1/9) > >>

SteveW:
Started to follow ASH's excellent ignition coil fix instructions, but wondered if the same result could be achieved with only cutting a small amount of the casing away.

I cut a small access hole as in the picture with a Dremel with one of those metal burr attachments. Cut through the old HT lead and yanked it out easily.

Ran a 7mm drill bit through the hole vacated by the HT lead, just to clean it out, virtually no material was removed.
Tinned the remains of the old HT lead. Stripped the end of the new HT lead and tinned.
Slid new HT lead up the hole to meet the old one, soldered together and dropped epoxy into the hole.

UK Pete:
Wow what a good job I won't be throwing old coils  out any more

That is very cool indeed...

Will it suffer from water ingress though due to water running along the HT lead?

Cool  ..you could coat the wire in liquid epoxy then push in to fully seal. I would recommend the liquid epoxy i used in the writeup though .. very runny with heat and good dielectric strength.
