Coil wire replacement CB550?

[downtown809]

Question on the coils: The spark plug ends unscrew fron the wires easy peasy, do the wires come out of the coils?
I have one wire on each coil that was cut and then just joined together and I would like to fix this without new coils.
Thanks, Peter

Nope. The wires are permanent. I've heard of some people drilling them out but I wouldn't. I swapped mine out for 5 ohm coils from dynatek. Had to mount them with the secondary outlets facing forward and up to avoid the wiring harness box below the coils.

Thanks dualitymike, as I thought. It is odd that they went to the trouble to make the plug ends removable and the coil ends permanent.

They used the coils in multiple applications with different angle plug caps.
