So I am at a loss... I have a '91 F150 2wd truck with the 300 straight six. I went to do a tune up on it, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil. My trouble is this... I snapped off plug number one in the cylinder head. The only thing that is left in the head is the threads and the remainder of the porcelain. The others came out with no trouble at all. Other than taking the cylinder head off and deal with all the original emissions equipment ( smog pump and all the tubing for it.) Does anyone have a good way to remove it? I can't weld of get anything on the remainder of the threads. Will post pic's as soon as i can.

Run it and see if it blows the rest of the porcelain out. But make sure nobodys standing in the line of fire when it blows out like a bullet.

If it works then use a easy out to get the rest out.

I was thinking the same thing. Do you know where I can get an easy out that size? Harbor Freight doesn't seem to understand what I am looking for when I ask for an easy out. Was going to close the hood and let it rip to see what happens.

if the threaded parts still in there it aint gonna blow out guys gotta be un threaded

yeah it's snapped there in the cylinder head.

If it broke there where the arrow is pointed it should blow out cause the tapered part at the top is what holds it in if I am correct.

JeepingDan

I said the porcelain not the threads lol

00jeepXJ

yeah tapered portion is snapped off and still on the rest of the plug.

Soak the remains of the plug really good with PB or Deep Creep from the parts store while your waiting for the extractor.
It will help out a lot.

I have gone through four can's of PB Blast so far soaking them... will say that the last five came out nice and easy after I went through the third can.
