Spark Plug Wire Remover Tool
Need a suggestion for a spakplug wire remover tool that works well with the 4.0 engine.
Can't get the darn boots off with the tool I have.

You may not get them off without tearing them.
I changed mine at 134K. Made the mistake of changing the plugs before my red MSD wires arrived ($95 delivered).
Wouldn't you know it...the first plug wire tore due to heat rot.
Make sure you have new wires ON HAND before you start.
Good luck!
Oh yes, the MSD wires came with the factory "snap type" boots on the distributor end.
Go ahead and swap the plugs while you are "at it".

Thanks for reply. First attempt to remove the wires I didn't have
any luck.
Sprayed the boots at the end (near the plug) with WD-40 and
worked on rotating the boot on the plug. Once free was able
to unsnap the boot by hand.
