Hi I have a 05 ford expedition 5.4 3v triton, spark plug in number four is broken as in not half due to some sticking out, my original problem was the hex was round but then I went down to a 14 so I could tap it on but it just spins also and once I cleaned it out I see that the hex is ate up some and looks like spark plug is broke I will attach pic any advise would be helpful and totally appreciated

hard to tell from the photo. There's not a piece of the ignition coil rubber still down in the hole is there?

 

It's hard to tell just how much of the spark plug hex head is actually exposed above the head. If you have room, you may need to break off some of the porcelain insulator to get a solid grip on what's left of the hex head. Even rounded, there should still be the thickness of the hex sticking above the head which you may be lucky and get a bolt extractor in there. I've never used a Lisle tool. Fingers crossed...

Good Luck and Keep us Posted.

 

As needsmoarturbo said, it looks like the ignition coil rubber is still down in the hole. Please confirm one way or the other.
BTW keep in mind that any debris down in that hole will fall into the cylinder, so clean it thoroughly before actually removing the plug.

 

thanks I will try to clean it up more I spent a few hrs cleaning to get a go pic sense it was so dark in there imma try and clean all the debris around it and rig up the shop vac to fully reach the bottom of the hole and hopefully there's enuff hex to remove with a extractor

 

google “lint Lizzard”. Works well. Could fab up something similar too.
