[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 868076, member: 615"] Yes, it should still be functional. I'm running one right now in that condition. There's a hard plastic tube embedded in the soft rubber. The tube is the structural portion of the cap. All the important stuff is in the tube. The threaded connector is in the tube along with the spring-loaded 10K resistor. The small wire friction connectors which grab onto the spark plug's top are in the tube. It's nice to retain the round rubber top so that you can cover over the opening in the head cover to keep out trash and moisture. Although any moisture would likely quickly evaporate with the engine running. For whatever reason some of the caps latch onto the plugs much tighter than others. It's probably all to do with the small wire grabbers inside the cap. Some of them really bite into the metal connector/electrode on the plug. [/QUOTE]
