Sorry, 1964 ca77 - I actually figured it out. The spark plug wires have caps that screw on, but they just crumbled and the wires pull straight out. Just gotta get new plug wires now.

Thanks,

Removing spark plug wires from the coil

Hey guys,

Any trick to this ?

Thanks! Beck For cleaning off those years of yuck, there's a great product called De-Solv-It. One of those orange fluids (environmentally safe) that does not etch aluminum (as Simple Green does).
