Need a Spot
I had this posted in the tech section, but since I could not post pictures there, I deleted it and posted it here. I appreciate all the advice I got from the tech section. Well, it happened. I used some PB Blaster on the stubborn #3 spark plug. I sprayed it good and let it soak for a couple of days. I went out Saturday to try and remove it. I got a couple of small turns out of it and then it snapped off flush. So, I guess my question is, what now? I obviously can't drive it down to an auto shop. Has this happened to anyone else? Short of removing the head, how would / did you remove what was left of the spark plug? Here are some pictures to better illustrate my problem.
Thanks,
Jim

This guy thought you could not post pics in Tech, so he deleted his initial post (leaving the thread with all the help in it. He posted this new one in Talk. So, this one just needs to go to PT for perpetuity.

So, cut/paste/edit later all is good. A few PMs and he is back on the same page as the rest of us.

But, you know, I was thinking of just banning him...:D
