I was working on changing the plugs on my Ferguson TO-30 ... had two that wouldn't come out. Lotsa penetrating oil and heat got one out, and I was working on the last one and it popped kinda funny twice and next thing I know, me and my cheater bar are holding what's left of a broken spark plug. It twisted off just below the shoulder, and the ceramic guts came out ok. The only thing left is the outer threaded part ... and a few expletives still echoing off the walls in the barn. What's the best next step (besides throwing away my cheater bar)? I've heard lots of stories about the horrors of broken ez outs, and I sure can't afford a new/used head right now. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Jim
