Default 2000 Ram 1500 5.9 4x4 spark plug issue

I am trying to change out my plugs, the truck died on me the other day.. I replaced Cap and pulled the wires off and cleaned all the dirt and junk down inside the heat shields, turned the key and it fired for about a minute then died again, waited a few and did it again fired for a min but i had to keep foot on gas as soon as i took foot off it died... so i want to change plugs and see if that helps... i got the two front plugs on driver side out, none of the others want to come out easily... to me it feels like the h/s is too tight towards the bottom and wont let the socket around the plug... is there a way to remove the h/s with the plugs still in... if not any suggestions how to get the plugs out they are pretty rusted and in tight... thanks for any help...

Grab them with vise grips and wiggle around and pull. You might want to try this for the stalling though. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/dodge-r...n-the-iac.html and check inside your intake while your at it. Read this thread too https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...um-thread.html
