I usually use 7mm PVC cable or Hypalon and abrade/degrease the surface. Hypalon isn't supposed to good for bonding to rigid epoxy but I have abraded it and found it to be OK with the RS adhesive. I don't think the original PVC cable 'bonded' well to the plastic Honda used anyway.

I have found this potting compound on eBay 50 ml so looks like it fits the bill

As it turns out Ash I looked back at my order from the Green Spark Plug company and it turns out I actually ordered both red and black 7mm PVC HT lead. Not silicone. So hopefully that should work just fine.

Your idea of turning coils around I think was used by dispatch riders in the 70's Ken. Yea ... I got mine from Green Spark Plug Co. too.
Oddjob:
Oh, I’ve never heard that before Ash. And here was me thinking I’d invented that mod. Or maybe they copied it off me 😀😀😀

I only quoted the RS components epoxy as we use it where I work it has a quoted high dielectric strength ...but you could use another liquid epoxy if it has a decent electrical spec. It's a great general purpose adhesive though and it can be filled with aluminium powder, silica etc for a whole variety of uses.

Hi Ash is this the epoxy you used on your coils ?
