Disconnect the negative battery cable form the battery terminal with a wrench. Disconnect the positive battery cable. Position both cables so they cannot touch the terminals on the battery.
Locate the spark plug wire under the engine hood. The spark plug wire connects to the spark plug, which secures to the side of the engine's cylinder. The wire is black and approximately ¼ inch in diameter.
Trace the spark plug wire away from the cylinder to the coil. The wire plugs into the coil. Pull the spark plug wire's boot off the coil with your fingers, then unplug the wiring harness that connects to the coil.
Remove the screws that secure the coil to the engine and discard the old coil.
Place the new coil onto the engine and secure it with the original screws.
Plug the wiring harness into the coil and then press the spark plug wire's boot onto the coil.
Reconnect the battery cables to the battery. Connect the positive cable and then the negative battery cable.
