Baffled why the Ford dealer can't get them out with the tool.

I bought the Lisle tool after never changing the ceramic shank plugs on an '05 5.4 (or the like). Got them all out. About half broke but it was only a function of time. Lots of time because it is tedious.

Pay the $550. I bet a miracle occurs.
