Ok so back to fitting the COPs, finally.

Here are the front wires prepared - notice that the #4 wire has to be longer to reach down to the right-hand cylinder from the connector on the left which is pretty close to the main harness:

Here's #4 connected...

...all taped up...

...and fed across to the other side, through the same route the HT lead used:

Same thing for the #2 wiring - notice the vacuum advance unit swung out of the way to access the OEM coil screw

#1 wiring fed through:

I re-secured the vacuum advance unit while I had good access to its screws:

Let's put the whole assembly back in, being careful with the V-boost cable and wiring

re-fit the vacuum advance connector..

...and the vacuum hose

the relay is going back to its holder (arrowed)

then the bolts holding the CDI bracket can go back in on this side..

..ignition switch is back in place (2 bolts arrowed)..

..and its cover as well

let's get the rubber straps back in under the right-hand panel, having made sure the COP wiring is in the right place..

...then that right-hand panel can be screwed back on

here's the #4 COP wiring ready...

..and the #4 COP all connected and in place. Noticed the (arrowed) rubber rings: I left the top [1] on as I didn't want to expose the metal underneath it, and added another one [2] (unused from the rear COPs) to stop this coil from moving under vibration. It's nicely wedged between the cylinder head walls:

One more part to finish it up.. :biglaugh:
