911sc: Socket/spark plug stuck in #1 hole
Somehow got myself into a pickle this morning. I was attempting to remove the #1 spark plug on my '83 and somehow got the socket and spark plug stuck in the hole. No matter how I try, I cannot remove the socket or spark plug. Even tried bent needle nose pliars to pull on the socket. The socket seems to move fairly freely in there, but it is somehow lodged within the hole in a way that won't allow it to pull out, despite some hard pulling.
It all started with an odd feel while attempting to get the socket to seat, and then unscrew the spark plug, from there, it all went down hill. At this point, I've removed the valve cover hoping for better access, that didn't help. Starting to wonder if the only way to do this is to drop the engine, which I've never done before.
Anyone ever had this happen? I'm guessing not, but thought I'd ask...
Thanks,
Christian
