Sign In My cyliner 1 was missfiring, I went to chang the spark plug and not knowing that the plug socket didnt have the rubber in it i broke the porclien,, my questions are 1). Is it safe to drive the car with 1/2 of the porclien missing ( will it ark and cause trouble ) 2). As long as the spark plug is in the peices of porclien cant fall in the cyliber right ? and 3). how the heck can i get the porclien out so i can get the socket to fit over the spark plug ? way2old Veteran / Moderator Apr 3, 2008, 5:02 PM Post #2 of 3 (1219 views) Re: I Need Help ! Sign In 1. The porcelin missing will cause drivability problems. It needs replaced. 2. As long as the plug is seated, there will be nothing fall into the cylinder. 3. Use a funnel and a shop vac to remove the broken pieces. Place hose into the wide end of funnel and use small end in plug hole. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds dmac0923 Enthusiast Apr 4, 2008, 6:39 AM Post #3 of 3 (1213 views) Re: I Need Help ! Sign In put the socket in a vise and with SAFETY GLASSES, take a pick or long skinny screw driver and a hammer and either break it into pieces or tap it out from the back __________________________________________________ 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2002 Ford Ranger 2004 Toyota Corolla 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
