Abstract
An ignition lead that includes at least one terminal assembly having a replaceable terminal contact that provides a simple means of replacing worn contacts without removal and replacement of the entire ignition lead. The terminal assembly includes the replaceable contact which threads onto a contact body located within a tubular insulator. A retaining ring attaches to the contact to hold the insulator in place over the contact body. The contact can include a groove that extends around the contact to receive the retaining ring. Replacement of the contact involves removing the retaining ring from the groove in the contact, sliding the insulator off the terminal assembly, unthreading the worn contact, threading on a replacement contact, reassembling the insulator onto the assembly, and then securing the insulator in place by snapping the retaining ring back into the groove on the replacement contact.
