Any tips on making your own wires with a universal marine wire kit?They thread into the distributor cap.I had a bad day today.Found an arcing wire and it fixed my misfire when I moved it out of the way.I had to heli-coil the spark plug threads on one side when I bought it and in the process of running the motor, I went in the shop and heard a pop among other noises and when I came out the plug was hanging down on the wire.So looks like a new head gasket and more Heli-coil.It wasnt cross threaded but over the years and from over torque they just break out.I always use 19 ft. lbs. so they were just old.Anyway,any tricks or techniques for making wires,any soldering?
