John,
Most actual vintage techumseh coils the ignition wire is removable and replaceable. You know what a wood screw looks like their is a spike where the ignition wire goes into the coil right in the center that is what holds the wire inside the coil. Here is a video of how to replace ignition wires and what the spike looks like. I have replaced a lot of ignition wires on older outboard motors it almost always makes them run better if not it at least gives me piece of mind that the ignition wires are good and I’m not loosing spark through cracked wires. This is true especially when trying to figure out whats wrong. I normally buy a entire roll of the 7mm copper strand inside wire which lasts me a while but in your case you may just need a foot or 2 napa most likely sells copper strand ignition wire by the foot. Marine engine does sell it by the foot.
hope that helps,
Joe
