Question coil "rotating" . . . . .

Ya No! I'm sure I'm on the plug or it wouildn't go in at all.

Doesn't your torque wrench fit in there? HA!, just kidding! The reason I asked is that my coil bolts were very hard to get off - I didn't want to crack them when replacing. The coil spins because there is a "soft" rubber liner on the tip of the electrode end of the coil which fits against the ceramic shaft of the spark plug. Also, there's only one bolt with no rigid complimentary stop to prevent the coil from turning, at least 1/8 to 1/4 inch.

Thanks,
