    Yeah the stock wires break real easy , spark plug wire pullers helped me a lot when I changed mine the only way to get them off is to twist and pull

    Actually I have other ways. But they aren't for the faint at heart.
    Thats because theres a potential that part of the plug can drop into the cylinder. It's a small risk as the plug is metal and has the tab on it to keep things from going in. Take a hammer and large screwdriver/prybar and break the wires/plugs at the base. Then pull the stub out and you are ready for the install.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Let me reword it then the easiest way to get them off is twist and pull, if you feel like taking a risk then beat them with a hammer and screw driver lol
