A few months ago, I attempted to replace the coil packs on my 2007 XC-70 with 150K miles. To my dismay, I could not get the coil packs off. I started prying a bit and decided to stop before I broke something. Then I remembered that I had an engine support bar. Voila. So I stuck the engine support bar over the coil packs. I fashioned a puller attachment from an old eye bolt and an S hook. I put the eye bolt through the bolt holes in the coil pack and stuck a nut on to hold it securely. Then I simply spun the lifting handle and they all popped right off. The operation was very controlled and either the coil packs were going to pop off or break.
