Bill, you can solder directly to the “nub”. First, you must clean the surface. I used a red Scotchbrite pad and a little carb cleaner to remove the thin layer of corrosion. Then using a Weller 125/250W soldering gun I soldered a drop of rosin core electrical solder to the surface of both spark plug wire terminals on the coil. Then I tinned the end of the spark plug wires. Finally, I soldered the tinned end of the spark plug wires to the terminal. Be careful not to overheat the coil when you tin the terminals. I took a resistance reading of the coil before and after soldering to ensure I hadn’t damaged the coil.
