Model Tech

Step 15. After David drew the firing order, he went back to his work station to replicate it on the model engine. He then opened the DM 3052 Ignition coils and straps (MacGowan's Signature Series) and removed the coil and coil strap. Remember that we told you not to throw away the left-over distributor stem? Well, here's why. You need it to mold the strap to fit around the coil. Wrap the strap around the stem, adjust and cut the excess strap and cement it to the coil. David then drilled a hole in the center of the coil and glued the coil to the engine block from the strap. Now you are ready to wire the spark plugs. Before cementing each wire, David checked to see if the wire fit the hole and cut the wires to length one at a time. When he had the right size, a dab of glue was put into each hole and the colored wire inserted into the sparkplug holes before the black insulation piece was pushed down to make the sparkplug boot. Do these in the firing order per the diagram for authenticity and so you don't get confused.
