When I restore a game, I put molex connectors on all of the coils. Makes reassembly a lot easier Makes swapping them out easier too if needed.

Quoted from Glarrownage:Nice! Have you ever had any electrical resistance issues (coils slightly weaker etc.)? How long do you make the pigtail? Looks like I'm going to need a better set of crimpers.
Those have big turn screws that clamp down on the spade though don't they?
I just cut the wires about 3-5" from the coil and install the molex plug, so I don't add any length to the wires.
This is the tool I use and it is fantastic and can take care of all of your crimping needs.
