You might get some radio noise, but that's about it.

Subject: [T3] Bosch plug wire question on coil wire .

From all the fooling around replacing the points and removing the coil HT
wire from the coil the coil wire is carbon fiber and I lose spark if I
touch it . I used an old Bosch solid core plug wire I kept from an older
set cut it to the proper length stripped the end and used an end from
another old solid core Bosch and crimped it on and used an old cold boot I
still had saved.

 Is there any issue using a solid core coil HT lead? The rotor is 5K ohm
and the other plug wires read 1K ohm which is just the plug end resistor.
Seems the coil wire reads 6.6K ohm if I test it yet has an open if I stress
it just a bit.
