Hello all. First Time posting here. You would think the coil cable wire on the excal would hold up a bit better than it has. Spending 300 clams plus shipping for a new coil, just to replace a coil cable seems foolish to me. Some great ideas posted here, to include a replacement cable. However for about 8 clams, I purchased some extreme self- amalgamating tape (self-fusing), cleaned the cable, let it dry and wrapped the entire cable. So far so good. I plan to coat the cable in plasti dip for good measure. The tape is good up to 500 degrees and has UV protective qualities. I have had it out about 10 times since with no issues...who know maybe the cable would not have failed if I had not wrapped itafe than sorry. Pics below....wait...trying to figure out how to attaché pictures from IPad .
