Can you get a screwdriver in there far enough to get some leverage on it and break it?
Vroom- Vroom. I have a 2004 F150 with 59,957 miles on it right now. Can you change my plugs without breaking any?

You can get them done pretty easy with an impact. Even a cordless one works. The vibrations break all the crud loose and let it come out. Start the motor just until it starts to get warm not full temp. Put some penetration oil on the plugs and let them sit for an hour. Impact and done. Just don't go ***** out with it. Just use enough force to get them to slowly spin your not trying to torque them out with force.
