Here is the link to the coil replacement article on my OddJobMotors.com website:
http://www.oddjobmotors.com/tt1_replacewico_coil.htm
The photo at the end of the article shows a ’56 Elgin magneto with the Wico coils replaced by OMC Universal coils. It has the green coil wire, condenser wire (OMC condenser replacing the original Wico screw-top) and the braided Wico points pigtail all tied together through the respective ring connectors with a #6 machine screw & nut. The tape is covering it so it won’t accidentally short – I did that as a test to see if everything would work, a solderless connector crimping all together would probably be better in the long run.
