Consider wrapping the spark plugs in tin foil from the base to near the tip, about 1/4 inch below. When the engine is started the spark shouldn't take that path but as you remove the lead the spark should jump to the tinfoil.
I'm not sure how an electronic unit works but but if you can remove the plug at the coil/distributor end and have a spark gap to jump to it may be easier.
