The set is called Accessory Spark Plug Ever-Dry Kit and it comes with the
"rubber boot" and the plug metal cup
----However: Beware--
Soon after I installed this kit I started having severe engine ignition
problems after the engine reached normal temperature--The motor would stall
constantly and spark plug firing was uneven --It left me stranded quite a few
times until I figured out that the "rubber boots" were acting as a conductor
(instead of insulating the spark plug) at a high temperature and were shorting
the spark plugs. I took them off and the problem disappeared right away. It
seems like the boot is made out of some rubber composite that acts as a
conductor at a high temperature--Strange--It was a waste of money---So much for
inferior quality parts!--
If anybody else knows where to get the "real spark plug boots" let me know--
My car has the original red boot or cap on the No. 1 plug wire but I don't know
who carries that----
