Default Wires going to coilpack

Right on my efi rs turbo, one of the positive wires sheared itself off right near the connector. I have soldered it back on but it now can slip in and out of missfiring because of the bad connection. Can you run a new wire through into the onnector or will I have to get a new connector? If so does anyone know the name of it or part no. ? Cheers, Steve.

polevolt.co.uk
They sell all the connectors NEW that you need, I have shed loads of them too if you have trouble, the one shown in the ebay link is of course NOT a coilpack connector, and is expensive too, but if needed I have lots of these too.

Why not just go to the scrapper and cut a plug off? Anything with an EFI CVH or a Zetec will be fine.

i did the same thing for Chunt69 when i converted his to EFI because the plug on his loom was shagged.

You can also then cut off as much wiring as you need aswell
