Spark Plug Issues...HELP!
Heyall,
Well I was looking to switch out my plugs this past weekend and as I was trying to remove the first one, it started to get REALLY hard to turn as it got further and further down the threads. I'm guessing that the dealer who switched them out last (about 40-50k ago) started on the wrong thread and just kept going. Seeing as there's 0 visibility and so little accessibility in there, I have no idea how stripped the threads are at this point. Any advice on what I should do to get the plug out without totally stripping the threads? Thanks..
