93 Tempo spark plugs seized

My wifes Tempo's plugs are seized into the head & I am afraid something bad is going to happen if I try to force them out.I've heard of this happening but have never run into it before,any suggestions on how to remove the plugs? without removing the head!!!:uhoh::confused:

I was able to remove 2 of the4 so far by soaking them & using an impact with very quick short burst to get penetrating fluid into threads easier still cant get last 2 out but hopefully soon, atleast by Mon.

You are on the right track. An impact will loosen the plug without stripping the threads. Penetrating oil is good, too. As, you know, putting a socket on it and adding torque will strip the threads. Impact--Excellent.

Either Chevy or Ford has a service bulletin I was reading in Popular Mechanics today. It says to soak with carb. cleaner and move back and forth. I think your 3/8 inch drive impact will do this. I do think carb cleaner will soak around the threads easier.

Thanks for the help I did finally get all of them out a day or so latter

I hated changing the sp[ark plugs when I owned my mercury topaz, mainly because the last one behind the alternator was a pain in the butt for me.

but yeah, next time this happens, grab a stiff brush, scrape as much corrosion as you can off them, then use something like WD-40 to do the rest.
