I actually tried putting the coil back on and was wondering why it wasn’t going in all the way, when I took out the coil the rubber insert was sitting inside the coil boot, and I pulled it out easily. Honestly if I realized the grommet was left behind before putting the coil back on, I probably would have had to remove the new plug. You can kind of see the rubber grommet around the plug in the picture attached.

After all this time, I just noticed the title says Sprark instead of Spark.
