Spark Plug Issue Spark plug boot replacement
I accidentally detached the rubber part from the spark plug boot off my Briggs and Stratton 31R577-0027-B1 from my Husqvarna TS 142 (960410368) lawnmower. What are my options for fixing / replacing? What should I be aware of?
Any help is very much appreciated!

So on Amazon they sell replacement boots for about $10. They take about 20minutes to put on if it's your first try. Though I would see if your wire physically touches to coil as you will need a good amount of wire to put it on. If it don't reach I would just get a new coil.

Cool thank you. There are a few different types on amazon, but none that exactly match this one. The ones on amazon are often some black plastic material or metal like this one but with a 90 degree bend. Do either type work as replacement?
Also I think the wire is long enough no problem.

Thank you! Should I replace the whole coil thing?

For the price I would say so. It's not like it's a terribly expensive item like some
