You can put some die-electric grease in the plug cap before you snap / put it back on . In fact anytime you have a electrical connection apart adding some die-electric grease is a good idea . Just use your hands to get the cap off try pulling it up from the bottom of the boot if possible you can twist it back and forth as you pull it up and off .

 

Thank you. So putting grease in the connection is ok? Some have said put it around the connection, so it seals water out.

 

Dielectric grease only! Not any other kind or can over heat and melt wires,start smoking! I learned that when I was a kid OPT

 

Yep make sure its die-electric grease tho you can get it at auto parts stores like Napa .

 

Have a tube of dielectric here.
Right in the boot, or connection, eh?

 

I usually just put some in the boot hole then put the boot on the plug .

If you do quite a bit of plug changes this is the best I've found to get at hard to reach boots with out damage. Have had this tool for years and just pop the plug cap up with the palm of your hand. Mac Tools Spark Plug Boot Puller SP500M "New" | eBay
