Broken plug wire trick?

See anything wrong? . Was running poorly and I guess I found the culprit



Any simple trick to get what is left off of the spark plug? These are Beru’s that are less than two years old and I have seen others post they have had similar issues!

Take the valve cover off and grab it with pliers. They can break if you reef them side to side trying to get them off the plug. Be sure to get all the little internal pieces out before removing the plug.

Thanks John!

Will be my first go at taking the valve covers off. The car was new to me about 18 months ago - however since then there has been a valve job at a shop.

Assuming valve cover removal is pretty simple? Any gotchas to look out for?

6 nuts. Pull the connectors straight out so you don't break any more.
