Default Do I need to replace these ignition coils? Rubber warped. Pics.

Hi,

I'm wondering based purely on 3 of the 4 having twisted rubber boots, if I should get new coils? The twisted rubber prevents them going in as easy, but then again there is a bolt that holds it in / presses it down... so I wasn't sure if it mattered. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Pics:







This is the normal one, for comparison :

If it's not causing any performance issues it's not a big deal. Just be careful next time you put in coils that the boots aren't mangled.

I'd only replace them if they weren't rubbery anymore.

I'm pretty sure you can buy and replace just the rubber portion

Thanks for the responses, I appreciate it.

I will try to find the boot kit and do that.
