As long as they are the same size on the inside of the engine, and the plug is actually making contact on the terminal, it should be fine

you most likely forgot to take the top off the new plug. it unscrews.

i did some research. there are different type of coil boots. ones for the screw top kind of plugs, one for the ball-end type plugs. cars and trucks mostly use ball-end type. seems motorcycles mostly use screw-end type
