what drove me crazy today

at first i thought today was going to be nice to start my tune up. errrrrr........ wrong. i started with the spark plug wires then the spark plugs. i first wire came out really easy. when i proceed to install the wire i notice it was going in all the way. scratchin my head for a while i discover the the resistor wire was still stuck on the spark plug. dammit! after a long struggle i got it out. the next wire gave me the same problem. i didn't see the resistor this time. finally i notice the rubber seal on the plugs was stuck in there this time. the third one was fine. and the last one gave me the same problem as the first one. the whole process took me about 3 hrs! heres the pic

dude that sucks... I had alot of trouble when I worked on my car too. When I changed my ignition wires I coated the inside with dielectric grease... that would probably prevent your problem. That's what was recommended to me anyways.

What kind of wires did you put in?
