Re wire the coil ??

[Robertsbrock]

Has anyone ever taken the power clip off a coil and re wired it to make it longer ??

Power clip to do what?

[Robertsbrock]

the blue little clip that connects to the coil so it works and shit , just wondering if anyone has cut it off and re-wired the blue clip so its longer. ( So i can move the coil somewere else )

i've never done it, but there shouldnt be any problems extending the wire, just do it properly, ie solder, heatshrink, etc.. nothing more of a headfck than dodgy ignition system..

[Robertsbrock]

yeah its a pain in the freaken ass really , but it needs to be done

Blue Plug

[SIKORA]

[TURBO_GHIA]

i cut the end of an old coil off and put the new plug on the other end ,so it was all plug and play

Hows this 4 luck ,,i went to poker tonight and was playing pool against a mate and foudn out his brother worked for Ford In Horsham , so his comming around tommorow after work to do it all for me for 50 bucks .. How choice is that??

Just make sure that the core of the wire is the same size and the sheath is similar too. If done properly there won't be a problem. Although I am curious where you are going to move it to?

Wanna chup bro ?

[Robertsbrock]

i carnt chew bro ... lol Fark that clip is funny

And ill take a pic or 2 to see were ill move it 2 , theirs not too many areas i could move it to

[Robertsbrock]

the white circles are were i might put it , theirs stuff all room to the right but shit loads to the left

[krisisdog]

I would NOT put it on top of the engine, front right seems like a good spot. Why cant you put it on the < left shocker tower? Run the wiring round the back of the motor?

[krisisdog]

Or mount it on the firewall on the left side? near the brake booster. I think thatd be neater than my previous post.

[Rollin]

Because you don't want a coil lead 2 metres bloody long! You want it as short as possible..I don't know why you want to move it really....

[krisisdog]

I suppose, but how much added resistance would there be? Would it even make an impact?

[Robertsbrock]

From whats iv been told if u have a long coil lead it will be shit, I got a extended sized coil lead ,but yeh ill see how it goes. And the reason im moving the coil from were it is , is because its in a stupid place not all of us can move the manifold as we please.. So im going to move it most likely on the firewall somewere ,
