ABSTRACT:
A tool for the removal of lead wire boots from the spark plugs of internal combustion engines. The tool has an L-shaped steel hook adapted to engage the underside of a spark plug boot and permit its removal by an upward pulling of the tool. The tool has an elongated silicone elastomer handle molded integrally to the steel hook through openings in a shank thereof. The thick rubber-like silicone handle fully electrically insulates the user from the hook and thus also the high voltages carried by the spark plugs. The handle is sufficiently flexible to permit the user to insert the tool through the maze of appurtenances of the present day crowded engines into the area of the spark plugs. The flexible handle is endowed with sufficient strength to pull the spark plug boots and is equipped with a flat circular ring for easy gripping by the user and for conveniently hanging on a hook when the tool is not in use.
