Changing cap and rotors
I had Two plugs that wouldn't come out, so i'm going to take it to Pep Boys and just have them change those two and the cap and rotor and wires. I don't have the time to be in there unfortunatly.
Yeah well i didn't put them in to begin with, so i'll let pep boys screw around with it.
Edit: Actually, screw them i know i can do this myself, how do i get the two stuck plugs out without breaking them? Penitrating lube?

you can try penetrating lube but it's tough to get it in there. if you have the plug shields still installed, grab a pair of pliers and yank them out, they are press fit in and will give you more access to the plug. I'd get a breaker bar and use some muscle... I have never used anti-sieze on any plug or bolt and have never had a problem getting things apart. Living in CA probably has alot to do with it, I dont have the weather most of you guys have...
I'm afraid of breaking it though. Well i did get the cap and rotor changed and the wires, there's just those 3 sparks that need to come out and that can wait a few days.
It is harder than you think to break a spark plug off inside a head. You might get too rough and break the ceramic end of it but chances are the metal nut will still be there. You can usually feel when its going to break anyway. Use anti-sieze on the new ones though, whoever did it last time obviously didn't and this is what happens.
