Spark Plug Wires - Advice for Jeep Wrangler Does Not Start In The Rain
 
Hello, I have a 1997 Jeep Wrangler. My Jeep fails to start when the
climate is wet (eg, long heavy foog, or after a long rain). I believe
changing the spark plug wires will eliminate this problem.

Unfirtunately, I cannot manually (by hand) pull the cable from the
spark plug. is their a special tool ar technique to remove the wire?
Your help is greatly apprciated.

Thanks!

I'd think distributor prior to wires, but I admit I'm an amateur when
it comes troubleshooting engine problems.

Anyway, as to your question regarding pulling the wires, yes there is
a tool. Looks something like this:

I picked up similar at my local auto parts store and it made life a
lot easier when changing the wires/plugs.

If your going to the trouble of changing the wires you may as well change
the distributor cap and even the rotor as well, it may also be a good time
to change the spark plugs too.
