my number 2 spark plug ceased and i cant get it out without absolutely torquing on the thing...(which i dont want to do)
any ideas? edit: the guy i goto says that it is probably from over tightening and he doesnt think dumping some wd40 or any penetrating oil down there is gonna help, any other ideas? This post has been edited by aflacattack: Jul 10, 2008 - 4:07 AM |

Impact gun? might work... might do some damage though?
