Ignition coil connector
So I have a faulty ignition coil connector. The plastic clip that clips onto the ignition coil. I just want a couple opinions. Am I safe to just cutt off the old clip and soder in a new one properly shrink wrapping it and such for weather resistance. Or am I going to have to change the whole wire harness. Any opinion appreciated 'Tia

Long story short the coil Forbes super hot a malfunction resulting in the little clip being damaged. It no longer stays in place and is causing a misfire. So I'm just wondering if I can splice into it and add a pigtail no problem or I should just swap the whole harness

Do not cut the wire if possible. Instead depin the connector and replace the defective connector with new.

Lol the ignition coil got really hott and melted the plastic clip from the engine harness. So now the cylinder 1 coil pack clip will no longer stay in place and is causing a misfire anytime you hit a bump or it gets loose again

GOTCHA...
de-pin and replace the connector itself rather than cut and solder, a lot of room for error there.
or duct tape
