2001 silverado spark plugs

How the heck can I get the plug wires off they are seized on the plugs. I have tried various pliers to no avail. Do they make a special plug wire tool for this engine?


Get some heavy leather gloves and remove them when engine is hot and first shut down. Twist them as try to remove them too.

yes you need to twist the boots, which can be hard to do.

Snap-on and others do make a spark plug boot "pliers", which grab the boot at the back end (closest part to the cylinder head) are very helpful. I have one and its about 20 years old now and works very well.
