Spark Plugs Took 6 Hours to Replace..F#%<
Would of only taken an hour or so to replace all my plugs, but this stupid little rock got wedged in tight. I couldn't even get the socket on it. And how it got there is a mystery to me. And of course it has to be the very rear cylinder.

I used a long and skinny flat tipped screw driver. It was really stubborn. It didn't help that I was digging on the wrong side for a while because I didn't compensate for the mirror reflection.

God thing your socket did not fit around plug. That hard little rock probably would have rolled down on top of the piston. Of course it was in the back cylinder, isn't it always with things like this.

Ya that little rock could have done some major damage if it had got down into the cylinder.

I'm bad to begin with, and I would have surely fu**ed something up up that happened to me! good thing you got it out...

I'm kind of thinking it got in there when the Ford Tech replaced my cam phaser. I just wouldn't think it could get past the Coilover Boot on it's own.
