IGNITION WIRES WITH CRIMP-ON TERMINALS
ALL MODELS WITH GASOLINE ENGINES
Ignition wires are now available from your Parts Distribution Center only on a per meter basis. Therefore, the ignition wires must be provided with terminals prior to installation. This requires the use of a crimping tool which is to be used as follows:
1. Using the old ignition wire as a guide, cut the new ignition wire to length.
2. Strip 6.8 mm (max.) of insulation from both wire ends. Use the guide imprinted on the crimping tool.
3. Twist the wire end tightly, and slip the terminal onto the bare end of ignition wire with a twisting motion. Position the jaws of the crimping tool close to the open end of the terminal. Crimp sleeve onto insulation. See Figure:
4. Then crimp terminal onto ignition wire core by positioning crimping tool as far from the screw threads as possible. See Figure:
5. Slip ignition wire identification band over cable, if applicable.
6. Screw spark plug connector and right-angle connector onto ignition wire.
