Hey are you talking about the lower half boot of your coil?

usually the coil can be taken off the the top of the tube insulator can be pulled off and only the top spring coil can come out, bottom one dose not come out you can get a 5/8 spark plug gourmet tool from auto store i beleave its 5/8.

any other question let me know..

Hitachi coils

I ended up ripping 3 out of the 4 boots so i cleanned my old ones and put dyelectric grease to prevent any more sticking and it started missfireing. A bit but it stoped once it warmed up and it hasn't done it anymore fingers crossed and i fixed my missfire lol
