The spark plug wire socket may have popped off due to a loose connection, which can occur if the wire is not securely attached to the spark plug. Additionally, heat and vibration from the engine can cause wear or damage to the socket, leading to a poor fit. Another possibility is that the socket was not properly seated during installation, allowing it to come loose over time. Regular maintenance can help prevent such issues.

Gently pull the wire off and then you will see the spark plug. You will need the the long 1/2" socket in order to fit into the space to loosen the plug. When you put the new plug in,use the socket to help you. It will be easier for you. Your fingers will not fit. Good luck, Lou

AnswerThey are inside the valve cover. Looking from the front of the car you will see the spark plug wires routing from the distributor cap to each plug.

I recommend adding some duct tape to the socket/extension connection to prevent the socket from coming off in the valve cover.

The factory service manual says that to get the spark plug wire off of the spark plug: Twist the boot about a half turn to loosen it from the spark plug and then pull it off using the boot.

How do you change spark plugs on Ford Ranger 1989?
well if you are just changing the spark plugs and not the wires, take off one wire at a time from the end of the spark plug. you will need a deep spark plug socket to take off the plugs (turn them counter clockwise). take the old one out, toss it. if you can on the new one, put some anti-seizing compound on it (around the part that screws in). then using the SP socket, put it back in where the spark plug you took out was. don't over or under-tighten these though. replace the wire on the spark plug, and move on to the next one. be sure not to mix the spark plug wires, or your firing order will be off.
How do you change a spark plug?
Without more information about the type of engine, and the vehicle it is in, all you can expect to get is generic information. Generally, with the engine cold. You need to remove the spark plug wire from the plug, twisting while pulling on the "boot" not the wire! Next find the correct spark plug socket,(one that the new spark plug fits into, AND holds the spark plug. Now make sure the place that the old spark plug is screwed into is clean, using compressed air blow out around the old spark plug to keep dirt and sand from falling into the cylinders (scoring/scratching the life out of them!) Using a 3/8" drive rachet, an extention and the spark plug socket, put the socket in the hole that you removed the spark plug wire from and turn the socket counter clockwise until the spark plug is free. Inspect the spark plug for unusual wear, or deposits this could be a sign of engine problems. Take the new spark plug check the gap!! if it is correct place it in the socket and start theading it in the spark plug hole by hand, turning it clockwise. Tighten the plug firmly, but not till all the veins pop out of your face. Reinstall the sparkplug wire you should feel it snap onto the end of the spark plug. Continue on with each of the other spark plugs making sure to always put the exact same wire onto the plug you took it off of. Note it is a good idea to put a small amount off anti-sieze compound on the threads of the new spark plugs to aid in the installation and removal. Also when reinstalling the spark plug wires use some silicone grease in the boot so that next time the boots will pull off easily. I hope this is some help. Melvis
