Changing spark plug wires

I was having a intermittent problem, my bike was loosing power often. I finally figured out that spark 3 wasn't firing all the time. I think it's the spark plug connector wich is great since they cost 2,50$ . But it also could be the spark plug wire. How can I change a spark plug wire without buing the pickup coils?

It's a Yamaha FZ600 1988

Thanks

You should be able to take the wires off the coils. Usually they are sealed and need to be worked on, but it's doable.

this might help!
