So which of these are a tried and true method? I received my tool today in the mail from TxStig "M Division" and it worked flawlessly for the all the driver side coils and 3/4 of the passenger side coils. The PS coil closest to the firewall is a mUthA to remove. I have one more spark plug to change but after 2-3 hours in 37 degree weather I threw in the towel on the 8th plug. I will have to revisit it soon but i need another method to remove coil. I see the OEM tool has a simple yet effective design that gives you the leverage to pop the coil pack. I wont be spending $300 on it however. So I have to come up with another means of tackling this last coil. Or go back to gym and work on my finger strength lol. Any ideas folks?
OK so I came up with a simple way to remove last coil using M Division coil puller and a couple hand tools. See photo for reference
Basically used a 21mm wrench and a socket to provide some leverage to remove the coil. Pretty much the way the factory tool works.
