Bought a new coil, dist. cap/rotary button, and plugs/wires for the bronco. Went out today cause it's nice and started wrenchin on it. Well some dumb mother fucker had the spark plugs WAY to tight. They werent rusted tight because the threads were clean when i got them out. Getting them all out is my problem. Its a v6 and on the left side, the front and middle spark plug broke off and now its just porcelain and threads flush with the head. So yeah it sucks ass because i don't really feel like putting a whole new head on it. Any ideas?

yeah use an "easy out" made for spark plugs. youll need to know what size your plugs are, small or big..

oh yea next time, have your motor up to operating temp. that makes the heads "grow" and the threads wont be so tight. the last person most likely put cold plugs in a hot motor, causing them to "seize" right now when you rtryin to pull em out

go to your local auto zone and borrow an E-Z OUT set

anti-seize will stop that.

autozone here doesnt have an easy out set. Neither does wal-mart, lowes, ace hardware, o'reillys, or advance auto parts. Pretty stupid that none of them carry them. I'm sure they carry them but it doesnt do me any good if none of them know wtf is going on.

yeah i had this happen to me on my old roomates v-8 explorer. i had to get an ezout and hammered out the leftover porcelin and pust the diode to the side and wedge it in there and it came right out. soak it with PB BLASTER also.
