78F350 has the best practical suggestion- again !
#5 is way better than the bung in my experience.
Just be gentle

Yet another DIY Spark Tube tool.

This worked for me, just a short threaded 3/4"x 2" PVC nipple with an end cap.

I threaded it slightly into the spark tube and with a bit of wiggling out they came without removing the spark plugs first.

So with the # 5 process does the washer fit the groove that the O-ring is in or does it try and catch the very back of the tube it self.? Thanks

Thanks jvfante..I will also try that process,.Maybe I was tightening the boat plug to tight but not sure how that would result in it always pulling out. Thanks !
