Broken spark plug removal using NAPAs extractor

I broke 7 of my plugs while following Fords directions for removal. I was going to get the Lisle extractor from amazon but decided to get a similar one from NAPA since I didnt want to wait for shipping time.
The first tool that you thread into the heads to push in the porcelin part of the spark plug wont thread in. I tried it on all 7 plugs. It seems the size of threads are too large. Has anyone else had a problem with NAPAs part? I don't want to force it for fear of stripping the threads on the heads.
Thanks for any help.

No input on the NAPA tool. I used the Lisle one and it worked real well.
