Stuck spark plugs

[Robert Myers]

Turn it toward the _other_ left, Phil. :-)

Perhaps run the engine long enough to get it fully warm before trying to 
pull the plug. If I remember correctly (really? lotsaluck) Aluminum has a 
somewhat higher coefficient of thermal expansion than does steel. Heat 
should (it sez here) loosen the threads a bit.

OK.  You put a 3/8" drive plug socket onto a spark plug, apply a bit of
torque, and there's no action.

You shift your feet, take a better grip, and still nothing.

Course of action?
