Joe,

Simple first. Unscrew the plug cap from the HV lead and the HV lead from the coil. All there is is a self tapping screw/conductor that threads into the conductor of the HV lead. Clean with contact cleaner. Cut a few mm back to good wire and reinstall with some RTV on the insulation for a seal. Last year mine would occasionally start hard. I did this and its been a one kick bike since. Start with the cap as the coil side is sealed better, but the coil side can come loose from impacts. The resistor plugs aggrevate the problem as there are voltage drops accross every resistance (poor connection) and less for the plug gap. You can run a non-resistor plug without problems. I only run a resistor plug for insurance against interferance with my Pro Comp computer and/or GPS.
