While replacing my ignition coil I had to cut the two wires connecting to the negative terminal, because the screw holding the metal piece ( I don't know the name for it, but it's like a little metal gasket) that pushes against the negative terminal was stripped. Is it okay two solder the two wires to a new metal piece, or will this have adverse effects?

So your talking about the battery cable end that hooks to the battery?If so they have battery cable ends with a extra wire coming off that has a butt connector on it to hook up aux wires to the cable end.
