thanks for the tips, i've been told the best way so far so might as well share it with ya, start the engine, run it until normal operating temperature is reached, shut it down, spray a shit load of penetrating lube pb blaster moove it whatever in the spark plug holes and let it sit for at least a day then morning after they should pop out of the heads



then do yourself a favor and buy some 1 piece sparkplugs lol don't bother with oem style plugs



ANTISEIZE!!!!!!


that was the tech tip of the day
