Help removing #7 spark plug Okay Im going to start replacing plugs and wires today. So far so good. I removed #1,3,and 5 easy. I removed the #7 plug easy but I cant remove the wire. It look like its it supported by some type of metal plate so I cant remove the wire. Do I have to remove this plate?
Once I put in my new MSD 8.5 wire will I also need to put that plate back in as well?
Oh yea its a LT1 1994 Z28

On my car I just cut the spark plug boot and pulled the wire through. Then I ran my new wire around the header ziptied away from the header (where the brake lines are) and wrapped in heat sheilding material. I also use Accel heat sleeves at the spark plug boots. Work great.

Yes there is a heat insulating plate that runs the #7 spark plug wire along the block. You have to remove the bolts that hold the plate the block to get the wire off and run the new wire underneath it.
