Ignition Wires

do the old ones just pull off? I'm installing new ones and I don't like to pull first, pay for it later.

you don't want to put them on in the wrong order. I would wait right up until you are installing the new set to know what plug correspondes to what coil.

Great site, done, another question though, I hear Magnecore 10mm wires need a paper clip or something to make them fit, I didnt do that, did I do something wrong?

dexmex,

The site mentions that the paperclip is used to allow air to escape from under the coil termination rubber caps. Otherwise air pressure might tend to push the caps off the terminals.

you slip the paperclip under the cap to allow the air to escape. Push the cap in with a bit of the paperclip.

I'm sure you did it right. I went with RB, no problems there.
