Coil Pack Grease ...

[cwmoser]

This sounds like a dumb question ... but what part of the Coil Pack do you grease?

Had a misfire on #5 cylinder and found the rubber boot was split.
The replacement Coil Pack came with a small pack of grease - what do you grease?
Without knowing any better, I just applied a small amount on the outside and the inside where the Spark Plug goes in.

BTW, I purchased this Coil Pack off Amazon:

Is it dielectric grease?

If so I’d say the terminal plug end where your wiring harness would plug in BUT I’m not aware of the practice of having to grease them. I did wipe mine down carefully and throughly when I did my plugs last year.

Maybe I should have put some lightly on the plug (male) part of the coil pack to make it easier to remove if/when needed.

I’m sure someone who drives in a more sandy region than I will chime in as to the best practice.

Hope it fixes your issue, we don’t hear to many good things about the cheap coils.

Just a dab on the end of coil pack so it will then go inside as you push it over the spark plug. Well worth the effort.
