Accel 8mm suppression wires on Dyna S green coils

[GSOH]

I recently purchased Dyna S 3 ohm green coils for my 81 850L. For the wires, I bought the Accel 4041 8mm suppression wire kit (ordered Dyna wires but were for twin). A few issues I'm having:

• First, the Accel wires came with factory 90's for the plugs. While the fit the inner cylinders, I am forced to route them through the upper portion of the engine, possibly getting too hot or in a bind. I am thinking of buying straight ends to replace these. Thoughts?
• Second, I don't have the Accel crimpers so while trying to use channel locks to secure the metal fastener coil insert, they will not crimp down enough to insert and click securely into the Dyna coil plug as they should. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Harbor Freight sells a crimping too that works well. You have to have a good crimp.

Good to know. I'll check it out.

Less than 10 bucks, the ACCEL tool was close to 50 when I checked.

You know the Dyna 8mm suppression wires are only $17.00 for a set and have straight ends. http://www.z1enterprises.com/ShopByC...01010405030307

You need to crimp the Dyna ones too... I did it in two stages with a pair of long nose pliers & a pair of conventional pliers. Worked fine.

Not sure why you bought that kit with the 90 degree boots, they do have straight boots as well. You could of have bought two of the replacements kits. Enough there in one kit to make two wires. You can also buy a roll of ACCEL wire and make your own.
