Default spark plug wires

How do you take out the spark plug wires? Do you just pull them out? Do you have to unscew heat sheilds? Please explain! I've already torn a wire. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

You can take out from the spark , and not difference if you take all of them out and return it,It's safe

My advice is one by one is better .

And befor you install wires The better is you must check your work and the wires .

This thread is so confusing.

Also, just pull them out. I yanked all mine with no problem. Make sure you're pulling in the right direction?

The shields just slide on and off. If the wires are stubborn try turning them a bit before you yank at them. I had one that was stuck on so bad that I did the same thing (tore the wire). You might as well get a whole new set just to be on the safe side.

I agree with promod, let's keep this in English. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Like stated above, twist the boot a bit to get it unstuck from the plug the just try to hold the boot, not the wire, and pull like hell.
