Slight modification to ASH's Ignition coil fix
Erny:
Re-opening this topic.
Found I better replace HT leads on my stock coils, using above mentioned method ;)
Can somebody recommend proven supplier of HT leads? (please recomment exact type i should look for)
paul G:
I have used these quite a few times.

Mine have been the 7mm ones ensure you get the copper core type not the Graphite type.

Can't remember the 7mm stuff I used originally but Trigger and Julie bought some last year, so they will definitely know. Needs to be tinned copper multistrand conductor ideally.
paul G:
There is also a slight modification on here somewhere which shows you that you do not have to grind/file down the whole of the raised section where the HT lead is encapsulated.
I did it by coming in around 20mm and then grind/file down about 15/20mm section and you can then cut the HT lead pull the old one out and slide the new one in and solder together.
When cutting the old one don't forget to leave enough to solder back onto ;). Makes it easier to waterproof and recreate the domed section.

Yes, I know, it is decribed at the beginning if this thread ;)
BTW
When i tried to measure resistance of secondary coil, I was unable to measure - not even sure if method was OK - I suppose one end of coil is end of HT lead and another is one of primary wires, correct?
I tried all, I mean end of HT lead ( I tried with and without cap and plug) and other to black or yellow (had coil 2-3 for test). Each time infinite resistance... but coil works, not sure if perfect but works...
What I did wrong?
