Part ?? 01 V6 spark plug "boot"?????
Please help!
I went to check the plugs today and apply some anti-sieze to the threads, recommended because with a 100K service life, the steel plugs can fuse to the aluminum heads and strip the threads when removed at 100K. Naturally for me, the spark plug "boot", the rubber tube going from #6 coil through the valve cover down to the spark plug....it was siezed in place big-time. There was no way it was coming out. I tried using some silicone spray and lots of patience, but it was fused to the plug. Figuring I had better get it out now or face a bigger problem later with a fused plug, I tore it up getting it off. I since "Gooped" it back together but I need to replace it. Does anybody know if you can purchase just this part, rather than a whole coil/boot assembly? The whole assembly costs about $100. I just need the part going from the coil to the plug...it is a two piece unit...coil and rubber tube with spring metal insert. I only need the rubber tube with metal insert. The chain autopart stores have no such item and the dealer isn't open until Monday...
Thanks,
Joe
