Stupid question but regarding the spark plug out, egi fuse out, listening for “whooshes” test:



For the removed spark plug do I also completely remove that plug wire or can I just let it dangle from the coil while I’m doing the listening test?

Well since the spark plug will be firing and the plug hole will be open, shooting gas into the engine bay witha firing spark plug just dangling around might be a bad idea.



Call me crazy but you might wanna rethink that one Bobby

as long as you pull the egi fuse you will be fine, if not BOOM
