All I have lacking on one of my junkyard Super 2"s is the ignition module. I have an good ignition module but the plug wire is bad. The IPL for my saw shows part # 69326 hi-tension lead as being a separate part of the module, part #94711. I had posted once about the spark plug lead on my Super EZ being replaceable. Thanks to everyones replies I found out that it was by simply unscrewing it from the module and screwing a new one in. My problem is when I tried to do it with the Super 2 module, the plug wire simply twisted in two where it enters the module. Can the plug wire be replaced? What did I do wrong? Thanks, Tim

Yes,you can replace the wire,but it won't be easy.You didn't do anything wrong,that's just the chance you must take.I'm thinking that someone must've glued that wire in there unknowingly.You'll have to try to dig out the lead out of the "well" that it screwes into,but be careful that you don't dig too deep.There should be a small post at the bottom of the well where the wire ends.I had to go through the same thing with my 150.It can be done,just take your time.It shouldn't really take that long either. This post was made in due respect to all members involved.

You should be able to remove the remaining part from the module with a small sharp tool or a fine needle nose pliers. There will be a threaded spike in the middle of the hole that is the electrical contact. Be careful not to break it or the plastic module housing. The wire is the same 7mm used on lots of engines, from the bay or a local auto parts store. NAPA usually has it or can get it. Solid wire center only, no carbon fiber, there is not enough voltage to use that type of wire.
The boot can be removed and replaced with whatever you can find to fit, the terminal can be reused if you are careful removing it. The terminal can be damaged pulling the boot off, cut the boot if you have to. Pierce the wire with a sharp tool so the terminal can be pushed into place. Feed the wire with the terminal on it through the new boot from the sparkplug end. Put it on the plug and trim the coil end to fit or match the length to the old wire.

My local ace hardware sells a replacement spark plug boot that comes with the wire piece for the inside too, works pretty good for saws and I think is only 4 bucks or so. Just FYI.
