I'm cheap,so i actually clean up my coils boots and springs when i have the coils off.I pull the rubber boots off,clean them out by pushing a rag through them,then i use my bench grinders wire wheel to clean up the springs,then i stretch the springs out a good 1/4 to 1/2" longer.To clean up the inside of the springs contacts in the coils,i use one of these in my Dremel,then give them a quick spray with brakeclean and blow out the residual brake clean with a blast of air from my compressor. So far i've never had to replace a coil on any of my toys,as keeping them clean seems to prolong their life.You can buy new coil boots,but if yours are in decent shape,why spend money on new boots if you can clean yours up.


If you do want to buy new boots,the NGK ones are probably the ones to have.
