GP What I like about this is that you don't have to break off the plug. The heat makes the GP soft and the compression does the rest. David

My bad... I am sorry but I didn't take you advice, I am sure this way works but I had another member call me and suggest that I use his "ole school" way and I tried that first. What I did was warm up the engine to full temp and shut off, then unplug and unscrew the stuck GP. Next have...
