If it's really stuck, I apply a little tightening torque (NOT too much, just a little) before I do the tapping trick. Sometimes, that allows a really stuck plug to come out easily. Also, if it "breaks loose" and sticks after a little loosening turning, the tighten/loosen process usually helps. Most of my work is with aluminum heads and it takes care to avoid damaging threads -- this can happen even if the plug appears to break loose and come out easily so it's best (in my work) to proceed carefully.

I’m headed out to the garage to try this

This works on any hard to loosen nut or bolt. I will use hammer at the same time I apply the wrench. It's the combination of torque and impact that will loosen things up. That being said, there is NO excuse for having sparkplugs so tight. Stupidity of some people...When installing new plugs go till you feel compression washer grab, then go quarter turn past that. No more...that will be perfect. Some idiots also overtighten oil filters...

Add a very light touch of anti sieze to the threads, copper is for high temperature, the silver colored will work. It's impressive. Especially if you have aluminum heads as steel loves to sieze to aluminum.

thx fixed my problem should change spark plug every 50k miles

Man I love you are best

That’s crazy, I’ve been struggling with this for the last 30 minutes and thought no way that’ll work.. sure enough it did🤣

Btw; 1444 means there was a previous code that has been cleared (so I’ve been told)

which one is the return line?

I tried this on my 07 ford f150 n it worked. That mf came out🤨🤟

Shit .. didn't work

Amazing tip thanks

Thanks bro!! I have an 01 F150 and I didn’t my spark plugs/coil packs maybe a year and a half ago and everything went well until I got to my #8, far back right, and I tried everything… except just whacking the shit out of it😂😂😂😂😂😂 thank you!!!!

Tools filter 40w❤

Nice!!!!

going to try it this weekend

Yes, let me wail a socket onto this aluminum spark plug, using a hammer and wail on my torque wrench. That won't mess anything up. A mallet and a long extension with a stripped bolt socket would do wonders. But not my engine, so you can mess up yours all you want. Just beware of plug blowouts from messing up the threads.

reverse hammer , use an impact in reverse

Am I the only one here who didn't get it! I thought you used the torque wrench to tighten the plug a bit, then tap and untighten. ??????....

Perfect video with every aspect in it! Thanks from Germany! ❤

I did the tapping lightly with nail finishing hammer but I sprayed pb blaster and slowly made the spark plugs loose

My hammer was pliers (I broke two distributor cables in the process) but it worked fought with it for 20 minutes and then saw this got it in 20 seconds

Can I just add the Lucas Penetrating oil where the spark plug sits and try to take it out?

keep making videos man its cool seeing you learn as you go and still able to teach and show useful stuff without having a huge bass of knowledge - i have a 540 and been dreading redoing fuel hardlines and its nice to see the routing here through your diagnosing

I just wanted to say thankyou . After taking everything apart i didnt want to put it back together and heat up the engine..my ignition coil sits on top of each plug ..and getting to the plugs is removing clamps bolts and wires .you hammer trick worked great . Ty

I don’t know. I got a seized set of 8 out of an old vehicle that also the oil pan was so sludged oil wouldn’t even flow out of the drain plug. These were nearly exposed old school plugs on the block and rusted all around. Put a good 5 second spray of PENETRATING OIL such a WD or Liquid wrench down the plug chamber. Let it soak for an hour. If no success, spray again, let it soak for a day. Never had to fight plugs like this. Some of these videos you risk breaking the plug into the cylinder, stripping the threads on the cylinder. Basically causing more problems.

Thank you so much. My uncle told me to tap but I just wanted to verify it from someone else.

They seize bc of steel plugs in aluminum threads too.

Where can I get the torque wrench?

Thank you sir

Mine blinks short once and then long blink then short back and forth what does this mean?

Get ya some PB Blaster and fill the well of each spark plug on a cold engine. Let sit for a half hour then do it again. Start her up, let warm up for say 20-30 min. then shut her down and immediately squirt each plug thread body with PB, where it meets the engine. An expanded hot hole, then a cooled shrinking plug and pop, out she comes.

The socket is around the plug, it's not hitting the plug at all

nice

I like how every other vid I’ve watched on this say nothing about starting as soon as you turn the key. Got my codes immediately after you vid lol!! Thanks bro

Try tightening plug a bit before you try backing it out. If it’s still stuck after that, or after tapping, Add penetrating oil after you have broke the seal by tightening it. Let it set then try taking it out. May have to alternate in and out and work it out

Did you use OEM fuel lines?

Thanks man, Like&subscribe

GMC envoy stuck spark plug

One time I had a wheel nut on my 8ton truck that wouldnt come loose with a six foot cheater bar.The biggest air ratchet they had didnt work either. The shop recommended I get the nuts cut off by an engineering workshop and fit new studs and nuts. \ Using their tools.A 6 ft cheater bar and 12 in extension onto 30mm socket I got the guy to stand on the cheater at the 9 oclock position and I hit the end of the t bar with the biggest sledge they had in the tyre shop. Got all overtightened nuts off with no damage.Always check tyre fitters work. Wont leave you in the rain on the side off the road in the dark with a wheel you cant get off.

This would not work for me because I use deep well sockets and because they are deeper than the spark plug and it’s hex, hitting the socket, ratchet or extension won’t transfer that vibration to the spark plug, only the cylinder head around the plug. Furthermore, I’ll bet most of you are using a deep well, and this works, it’s a coincidence.

My KTM dirt bike manual specifies that tap tap procedure prior to attempting to remove oil drain plug.

Don't use a torque wrench. We've used a breaker bar before. You can also use a 1/4 or 3/8 inch battery-powered impact wrench set on a light setting.

Coil can only deal with so much stress... Id get the 30 dollar amazon smoke machine.

what torque do you set for removing?

Well designed video good job

Hahaha😂

Um.Water vape?🤨

Don't you have to open the throttle body aswell 😊

Great video
