Ed,
Appreciate your generosity.  Yes, these are the female pins.  Since you've been through this exercise, is there anything that you can share on getting these little buggers out of the connector?  Maybe a "special tool" that I can fabricate to make the process a little easier?  I assume that you soldered the wires to the pins? 

Thanks,

Yes, Mark.  I received a quantity of 50 pins and certainly will not use that
many (hopefully {:>)).  I believe you are correct about the disassembly as
the parts for the plug do come unassembled.  Of course that does not
necessarily mean they were designed to be disassembled - but one can try.

 From looking at the component pieces, you may also need the individual pin
seals (red/orange rubber ribbed), they appear to be clamped by the tail of
the pin so removing the old pin could find the seals damaged/compressed.  I
have 100 of those, so let me know if you need any.

Give me your snail mail address and I will try to get 26 pins  out by
tomorrow. These are the female pins that go into the plugs  that slip over
the 4 coil terminal pins in the recessed part of the coil.
