What Stump said, & I would oil it every day for several days then get after it. You NEED it to come out in one piece.

Warm the cylinder head with two large electric soldering irons like plumbers use, and chill the lower metal section of the spark plug with either a chunk dry ice, or the drug store Wart removal spray chillers. Make metal temperature differences your assistant. Ding ding ding We (may) have a winna.

Way to much work.Saok it with a good penetrating oil. PB is like pea to me I used castle at work and now use the WD40 penetrant.Then work it back and forth easy.use a spark plug socket.at worki must have remover a few hundred that werefrozen.I used the ratchet to get them moving the used my 3/8 impact on real low to work them back and forth till they came out.Even with aluminum heads and had plugs that wer in for decades on some they came out and no damage.On my old ram charger snow plow truck the plugs were so bad that even a Snapon plug socket would not get them out.The crumbled.I finally got a metric socket on and worked them out.No damage.Rocky

Boy am I glad I moved away from the rust belt in 1985. If I had a car like that out here I'd call the scrapper because there is no way I'd even care to mess with it.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.
