Answer
Hello Again Michael:

>>Pull the Coil Wire Off the Plug.
>>Slip the Plug Socket over and onto the Plug.
>>Attach the Ratchet and Loosen the Plug enough so you can Turn it by Hand.
>>Once the Plug is Ready to be Removed, lift the Plug Socket and Plug Out of the Spark Plug Hole.
>>I have a Mechanic that likes to Remove the Gas Tank to Replace the Plug.
