Ignition Cable: Service Precautions

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS:
1. Twist boots one-half turn before removing.
2. When removing the boot, do not use pliers or other tools that could tear the boot.
3. Do not force anything between the wire and the boot, or through the silicone jacket of the wiring.
4. Do not pull on the wires to remove the boot. Pull on the boot or use a tool designed for this purpose.
5. Special care should be exercised when installing spark plug boots to ensure the metal terminal within the boot is fully seated on the spark plug terminal and the boot has not moved on the wire.
6. Any time the spark plug wires or boots are installed on the spark plugs, new dielectric grease needs to be applied inside the boot.
