you are either using the wires wrong, or screwed something up... mine fit fine


look down into the boot and make sure that the metal tip inside isnt spun around

i posted about the same problem not too long ago but what i found out was that there are 2 wires for the coil, a short one and a long one. the short one has a different type of connector than what you need, the long one works its just longer than you need. i ened up using the long one and just tryed to make it look as organized as i could.
