Well there is definitely spark i tested it and it lit the gas left in the piston and gave me a nice light at night

you can take some pliers and pull those heat shields off, always make sure to pull from the boot, not the wire itself. otherwise you can end up pulling the wire out of the boot.

Well I have tried and tried but I can't still get off the wire. It doesn't make sense, It seems jammed.
