Went to autozone purchased 8 Motor plugs 1/4 inch socket set etc. Pulled air box off and cannot get first cover off plug. I do not want to break plug. Am I missing something or am I being to careful. I assume the covers come straight up and off. What am I missing?

All you can do is grab the connector as low as possible and pull straight out. They do get crumbully after heat and time. If they do fall apart, just install new glow plug, and insulate it as best you can. Good luck, Tim

If money permits, you can buy a new glow plug harness
