Re: Coil Connection

The coil I am installing was supplied by a very reputable Packard parts supplier in the Midwest. It was tested and is operating as it should on their tester.
The connection on the bottom of the coil is similar to the original one - it connects the armored cable from the ignition switch to the coil.No issues there.
My question is with the coil wire going from the coil to the distributor cap - the connection to the cap is your standard arrangement, coil wire With a brass connector that plugs into the distributor cap, but going into the coil, it inserts into a Bakelite piece that then screws into the coil itself. in he portion that screws into the coil there is a small hole that allows the conductor within the coil wire to pass through. How does this wire finish out to where it gives good contact?
Thanks to all who have responded, your help is appreciated.
