The ignition coil connector wires are losing their insulation at the connector. I thought I could cut out the connector and replace with a new one, but NAPA wants $79 for this part. O'Reilly's wants $100. That's insane. Can these be opened up and repaired? Or grab one from the junkyard? I thought it would be a $5-10 part.

Pre-2000 or 00-up with coil packs? Junkyard, or part out jeep. Cut the connector and splice in new. But in theory can fix it.

How about heat shrink tubing over the bad insulation, then shrink in place.

This is what i did. I cut farther back and repaired the bad areas at the connector and then spliced the cables back in.
