  • Spark plug wires

    Is there a way to change the spark plug wires on the ignition coils? Mine shows bare wire and are cracked.

      I did the spark plug wire fix almost 3 years ago and nice solid repair.

        Yep, buy a set of VF1000 coils and wires (like these) and fit them as per these instructions.

            I will try to swap the wires out this weekend. Seems really simple.
            Thanks.
