THe one in the wheel well is at a good angle from the one in the engine bay. Near useless (I don't have a universal joint). Even if I did, I do not think that it would have worked.

ANyway, I'm done and the car still runs. The biggest casulties were the stripped bolt (would you believe I can't find a replacement -- it's not listed as a separate part -- only comes with the ignition coil -- can't find a match at 3 hardware stores or NAPA) and a burn on my hand. Oh well, they shoudl be good for A WHILE now.

Thanks for listening me go on and on.
How did you get the stripped bolt out? And if you can't find a replacement, what have you done to secure the coil?
