Disconnect the spark plug wires from the coil by hand. Disconnect the two smaller primary wires from the coil using an open-ended wrench.
How Inductors Work. An inductor is little more than a coil of wire. See more pictures of solid state electronics. An inductor is about as simple as an electronic component can get -- it is simply a coil of wire. It turns out, however, that a coil of wire can do some very interesting things because of the magnetic properties of a coil. In this article, we'll learn all about inductors and what they're used for.
