Default Go Kart Spark Plug

wrote in
oups.com:

My go karts spark connection broke so know I have to connect it
directly to the wire. I had some one that fixed this before but it
stopped working. So how do i fix this? I've tried wrapping the wire
around the terminal (and no the terminal doesn't come off) taping the
wire to the terminal, touching the wire to the terminal and i got
nothing but a blue spark. How do i fix it Mr. Mcguyver please help




Well, that cap where it connects to the spark plug is suppose to be
highly insulated. But since you were willing to accept taping it maybe
you wanna try this:

Get one that will fit under the plug tip screw cap. Insulate it with
duct tape or something highly non-conductive.

Might check PartsAmerica or a mover shop to see if they have a "No way
in hell is this gonna work" patchkit".

Considered changing the coil? Is other end of plug wire molded into the coil?
