I think they have to pull the heads if the plug breaks off.


Upon hearing this, I think that is what the deal is...

A buddy of mine had this happen a few years ago and was bitching about the design flaw/cost.

I have no clue how that layout ever made it past the drawing board.

ETA: I think that after I graduate, I'm gonna become an engineering stupid shite consultant. As in you draw up whatever you want, send the drawings to me, and I'll explain to you all the really stupid shite about your design.

Start spraying a lubricant on the top of the plugs now and continue weekly to you are ready to tune up. They may break one or a few. Chances are if they were installed without a no seize compound, a few will break! 600.00 to 1k to remove.
