[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 39141, member: 1695"] No worries, will let you know once it arrives. The connection on the plug that had to be fixed wasn't just a case of bad solder, a part of the red wire had completely snapped off, requiring the cable to be re-terminated to allow enough length. The problem these days is that people are using lead free solder, which is hard to heat, and tends to crack off easier due to not being as pliable as the lead solder. Easy fix though, found through the usual process of elimination. :) Also having two coils makes it easier to located plug/wiring issues. [/QUOTE]
