  Does the wire run alongside the spark plug tube or inside? Thanks!

  Both the generator output wire and the red wire for coil power run inside the plug conduit and exit near the front of the engine at the bottom of the conduit.

  I should have fed it before the plug wires, gonna be tricky now. Thanks 40!

  Had to do it twice 40coupe. First I had it exit at the front of the tube but then it was too short to reach the generator. I pulled it back out and the second time had it exit above #5 cylinder.
Thanks!

  There is a hole in the conduit for this wire IF you have the correct conduit.

  Hook apiece of fine safety wire to it; thread the other end of that safety wire through the tube until it sticks out enough to get a hold on it, and pull the wire it is attached to, through the tube. A little silicone or something similar on the car wire(s) that you want to pull through might help.
