Can you adjust the crimp with pliers "carefully" through the rubber boot. So it grasps the tip better? Might need a flashlight to look down into the boot to see it.

Good call red hawk. remember those old moroso build your own plug wires from back in the 80s? If you know this trick you must have used them.

I thought of doing this just scared and don’t want to crush it with out a replacement on hand. Guess I’ll stop by my shop and see if they have a replaceable boot first before I try it in the parking lot that way if it crushes I can replace it. Thanks guys

Get rid of the plug wire and just do like I did and install a coil on plug. Link to that mod is in my signature.
