Message 1628841 - Posted: 17 Jan 2015, 5:40:10 UTC - in response to Message 1628415.  

Spark plug leads?

Bingo.
To remove the plug wire you'll need the mystery tool. If for some reason you can't find yours, you could easily fashion something out of a small piece of thick gauged wire or even a wire hanger (these can come in handy for other uses too).
Simply maneuver the tool so it's under the clip and give a slight tug upward. This will disconnect the plug wire cap from the top of the coil and expose the coil.

Winner. Pm as usual.

Thanks Admiral. I expect Celttooth will get this one quickly, as every REAL Canadian has one of these in their tool box. I need the function of this tool, it has various names.

Something to do with spooling thread or wire?
