stupid ass rubber spark plug wire things.

[Leetheslacker]

the rubber parts that go down in the spark plug well.

well.

they didnt come up with the wires. and theyre fucking stuck.

two came out fine.
and the next two just got tore up and i cant get it out no matter what.

is there some kind of trick to this or am i a fucking idiot?

i cant even change the damn spark plugs on this thing without it fucking up. fucking hopeless.

that happened to me its so gay trying o get them out they kept braking in to smaller chunks and wouldn't come out
needle nose + an hour and they'll come haha

ugh, i hate when that happens. I always just used a scribe with a 45* angle and just poked it through and pull it out side by side.

i had a datsun 510 that this happened on. I ended up just buying Accell wires, and put them on, under 50 bucks, pretty blue, and never had to deal with the BS again.

I have DIS...

Its awesome until you have to replace 6 of them before they fry your ECU...

Damn you BMW.

i found some long ass skinny needly needle noses laying around.
im gonna try tomorrow.

i was just QQ'ing because ive been fucking with this thing since i got it to try and get it running right. 95 motor in an 89.

fouled the plugs out fucking with timing and then pulled the intake and finally got it all sealed back up and then this happens when im trying to change the plugs out right quick.

also. parts dude tried to sell me some double platinum whatever $12 a piece spark plugs saying theyre oem and i should probably use them cause they came stock.
i said fuckit and just bought normal NGK's.
is my engine gonna asplode or am i right in thinking it doesnt really matter?

one of my spark plug wires ripped once

the metal part that connects to the spark plug stayed with the spark plug

I just used some needle nose pliers and grabbed it out, tried to fix the wire to no avail

got new plug wires thanks to a friend

pick up an NKG wire set they are built well and don't rip like cheap ones in this situation

[leveloneae86]

i used a fishing hook and tapped it onto a metal rod, hooked it to the rubber part and pull it righ out.

[Leetheslacker]

i just got all the rubber bits out.
awesome.
thanks for the tips.

now heres to hoping it'll run right.
