    Any suggestions / tricks to get #2 plug wire boot off the plug? I've pulled and twisted for all I'm worth.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Changing just the plugs. From what I've heard the ignition systems are top notch on these cars and there's on 70k miles on it. My wife's brother-in-law, a real Mr. Goodwrench, got it off. My manhood took another hit today...

    I talked to my wife's brother-in-law. He said he removed the coil pack to gain a little more room. Maybe someone else can avoid some frustration with that tip.
