Yes. Are you pulling from the wire or the boot?

That has happened to me, and yes it happens when you don't use the dielectric grease on the inside of the boots.

Pull straight up, don't twist unless you have to.

Also if the car is hot when you pull em, they come off easier.

At any rate, that's why I don't buy plugwires from Autozone, etc. anymore.
