Removing
Spark
Plug
Frozen
to
Bushing
not
apply
to
plug
removal
and
sufficient
torque
must
be
used
to
unscrew
the
plug.
The
higher
torque
in removal
is
not
as detrimental
as in
installation,
since
it cannot
stretch
the
threaded
section.
It
does,
however,
impose
a
shearing
load
on
this
section
and
may,
if
sufficiently
severe,
produce
a
failure
in this
location.
NOTE
Torque
indicating
handle
should
not
be used
for
spark
plug
removal
because
of
the
greater
torque
requirement.
c.
Place
spark
plugs
in
a tray
that
will
identify
their
position
in the
engine
as
soon
as
they
are
removed.
NOTE
Spark
plugs
should
not
be used
if they
have
been
dropped.
d.
Removal
of
seized
spark
plugs
in the
cylinder
may
be
accomplished
by
application
of
liquid
carbon
dioxide
by
a
conical
metal
funnel
adapter
with
a hole
in the
apex
just
large
enough
to
accommodate
the
funnel
of
a CO2
bottle.
(Refer
to
Figure
8-39.)
When
a
seized
spark
plug
cannot
be
removed
by
normal
means,
the
funnel
adapter
is
placed
over
and
around
the
spark
plug.
Place
the
funnel
of
the
C02
bottle
inside
the
funnel
adapter
and
release
the
carbon
dioxide
to chill
and
contract
the
spark
plug.
Break
the
spark
plug
loose
with
a wrench.
A
warm
cylinder
head
at the
time
the
carbon
dioxide
is applied
will
aid
in
the removal
of an
excessively
seized
plug.
e.
Do
not
allow
foreign
objects
to
enter
the
spark
plug
hole.
