Abstract

An elastomer angled boot for an angled spark plug cable terminal having an angular bend of between 90.degree. and 180.degree.. The angled boot has two protuberances, the first protuberance providing a pressing surface and the second protuberance providing a pulling surface. Each of the pressing and pulling surfaces is oriented in a plane perpendicular to the spark plug insertion axis, and serve as an aid during installation on, and removal from the spark plug. A concave notch is provided at the bend in the spark plug cable terminal which interlockingly cooperates with a convex knob on the angled boot to prevent relative slippage therebetween.
