Then I solder the connection and finish it off with heat shrink tubing. That [censored] ain't coming out. Ever. 2003 Ford Focus ZX3 "Tarmac" http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2352003

I'd take it to an auto electric shop and have them swage on your terminals, it's cheap insurance against failure. what is this "swage" you refer to? I have never heard of this. Is it some sort of soldering tecnique? 98 csvt t-red.. sho-shop intake, b&m, fidanza, spec1 clutch, Torsen, DMD,optimized Y& TB, Brullen, rear strut bar,h&r's,17" konig traffik's.
