Two of the spark plugs on my 88 4Runner seem to be all gummed up and stuck. I was able to get one of them about 1/2 - 3/4 of the way out by spraying with PB Blaster and working it in and out but it still gets real snug at one point and I don't want to strip any threads. The other one only turns about 1/2 turn before it snugs back up. I'm letting it sit overnight with PB Blaster sprayed around the plugs but was wondering if anybody has another solution to get out plugs like this. The truck runs pretty decent so I don't want do any damage trying to force them out as I can live with them being in there. I'm not sure I want to run the engine to heat things up as that may increase the chances of stripping threads. But if that is the secret to getting them loose then I might try it.
