So I'm a bit of a car noob.
A big noob. I was changing the sparkplugs in my Celica, and I was tightening up the last plug, and it just broke. I don't know what to do, can I get it out, or am I screwed? I need this car for work tomorrow! please help!  !

use the bit, i forgot to mention you'll need an 8 point socket that can grip the bit.
you're better off going to the mechanic though, you may just make it worse if you break the bit off or pull threads out. -------------------- |
