Re: can spark plug wires be replaeced on coils?
It's cheaper to make your own, and it's quite easy to do. Just take your time. Wire can be purchased in any length at most automotive parts stores and of course any marine dealership (usually).<br /><br />Just make sure that the inner wire cable is steel, not carbon or some other such substance. The following, taken from my database may be of some help.<br /><br />--------<br /><br />If you also need the spark plug boots and the spring terminals that connect to the spark plugs, purchase them from your local dealership (OMC Part #581027). This includes one boot and one spring connector. Price is about $3.25ea.<br /> <br />Purchase whatever amount of spark plug wire you need. Be sure to purchase the kind that has a steel twisted wire leading through the center of it....... not the carbon type plug wire that many automobiles now use.<br /> <br />Using your old plug wire, cut the new wire to a length about 3/4" to 1" longer. If you have no old plug wire, just make sure that the wire is longer than you'll need as you can trim the other end later.<br /> <br />The rubber boot, spark plug end.... With the wire cut to the length required, trim back 1/4" insulation again but do not solder tint the wires. Simply fan out the wires and fold them back against the insulation, cutting the excess off as explained above. Holding the spring wire terminal, estimate where the prong should be inserted so that the spring will be flush against the exposed wire. Hold the spring terminal away from the wires end (sideways) and insert the prong into the insulation and into the center wire, then swing the spring terminal in front of the exposed wire portion (makes a tight fit for continuity purposes).<br /> <br />Spraying the inner portion of the boot where the wire will insert with a small amount of WD40 makes the installation of the wire a easy project. That's it.... you're done.
<br />does OMC sell new wires for them then or are there some that you recomend
