I managed to pull a plug wire out of it's boot. I stuck it back in so I could make it back to the dock. Do I need to replace this wire or will it be ok to run it like this??

Are you talking about the boot that goes on the spark plug ??

You should be able to fix that. Cut the plug wire off 1/2", bear the inner core and put the spring terminal back on with a pliers. Then put some WD-40 in the boot and slide it back on.

Follow boobie's suggestion. If you purchase a replacement coil wire from Bombardier, it comes as a kit and you have to put it together. You should be able to re-assemble your current coil wire and have it function properly.

It was just like you said it was. I fixed it.
