Spark plug broke off in the head while doing a tune up and only the threads are still inside the head. Has anyone ever had this problem and resolved it without removing the head?
I order the NGK iridiums off of ebay for $28/4 plugs. I think they could possibly be imitations or a manufactures defect?
I did not put much pressure at all on this last NEW plug. I used a bending bar type of torque wrench on 3 of the plugs and torqued them to 8 FT LBs. I thought I read some where 8lbs was the right spec.
On the last plug I just used my hand because I still had the right side fairing on. I put less than 8LBs on the handle but it snapped.
I put a good amount of anti-seize on the threads before installation. Is this going to be a engine swap job now?
