anyone ever had a problem with removing spark plug and it feels like its welded in? i had a surge problem which i thought was a shorting air flow meter loom because it some how melted together. but i went to remove the plugs because my replacement loom never fixed this. Can get three plugs out but one is stuck in, just had a fresh rebuild am i F***ED????

Ive tried vise grips and everything!!!!

 

a good 6 point socket will give you the absolute best grip on a spark plug. vice grips are just going to mess it up...

 

ive sometimes used just the box end of wrench and tap the wrench with a hammer.

 

It was one hell of a mission but i managed to get it out with a couple of spanners and plenty of leverage. really random... not having any issues anymore.

 

now use thread anti-seize with the new plugs and torque them to spec.

 

Those things only need like 14ft lbs or something. Whoever put them in before way overtightened them!

 

If you haven't toseed them in the garbage yet, mind taking pics of what they looked like?

 

haha i have a hunt around they in my junk box lol.... i had a close look at it nd it had a nic in the thread that must only affected it when it went to come out. lucky for me the thread on the plug gave away and not the housing!!!!!
