Sparkplug socket size?



Here is what I guess is going on. The socket that you are using is probably
a thick wall one that is having trouble getting beyond the squished out
valve cover gasket. Even my thin wall one has had trouble with this. Try
taking a sharp knife and shaving the gasket back a little. Remember to blow
out all of your shavings before trying to remove the plug or you'll have it
all in the cylinders.

Good luck,
