Charlies7 coil bracket improvements
Today I got my stuff from mcmaster carr so I got to work. If anybody here works on their own car where alot of mounting is done in the engine bay you cannot be without a nut-sert tool. It's basicly a tool for setting rivets with a thread inside in places where you cannot get a nut or where it would be a pain in the ass to do so.Charlie's bracket fits this category.This way you can take the coils out, or just one, without removing the whole assembly. It's especially usefull in thin aluminum where a threaded hole could easily strip. In these pics you can see where I cut a relief for the washer hose and inserted the threaded rivets. To replace how Charlie mounts the ignitor ( which is another pia) I will weld a peice of angle and mount directly to the ignitor itself getting rid of the black bracket.
