Removal - 1.6L

Failure to route the cables properly could cause the radio to reproduce ignition noise, cross ignition of the spark plugs or short circuit the cables to ground.

REMOVE CABLES FROM COIL FIRST. 

Always remove the spark plug cable by grasping the top of the spark plug insulator, turning the boot 1/2 turn and pulling straight up in a steady motion.

1. Remove the spark plug using a quality socket with a rubber or foam insert and special tool # 8448 (Fig 1 ) on the extention to keep from damageing the spark plug tubes in the cylinder head and valve cover.
