================= Once you fashion a wire hook to remove those boots, try Toyota wires next time. I would probably try a wire coat hanger, straightened out and a small hook formed with needle nose pliers to get under the bottom of the boot, and then work around the circumference to break the seal to the plug insulator. You should be pulling on the boot, not the wire to remove them (twist while pulling). Yours may be a different design. There is also a "dielectric grease" you can use on spark plug boots to keep them from sticking, but have not found it necessary with the genuine parts.
