coil pack wires

[bilko0795]

Just recieved these from Tps there are four wires in total and each wire has two spade terminals there are two wires from each coil and i have four my question is do i cut these wires in half to get eight terminals and then crimp to the coil wires or do these go as they are and i need four more of these. anyone done this before?

thanks.

That is the way Audi supplies their repair male and female pins, i.e. 2 on a pig-tail. I presume the logic is they (their supplier) can do a much better job of "W"-crimping the pin to the wire than you could and that any idiot (read, me, you) can do a butt connector crimp (or soldered and heat shrink-covered joint). Bottomline: Cut the four wires in the middle to get eight pins.

Here is a post that might help you with your work:
