I have #4 and #7 spark plugs broken. I need these two Rotundra kits from the tsb. Where can I get these tools from? Thank you.

 

Ebay, I've also seen them priced well on Amazon. There was also some talk of the users here passing a couple of units around between us as everyone embarks on the removal. Anyone have a rotunda or lisle kit laying around for this guy? Also, I believe Tylus had a post not too long ago with directions on how to make a "home made" kit.

 

I baught the snap-on one, I've held both, it is identical to the rotunda. they get about $100 for it online however it only works if your porcelein is all out. comes with a M9-1.00 tap, same as the rotunda. Does anybody know if the other commonly used tool uses the same sized tap? (I can't recall the name now but I think it comes from Napa) that one comes with a Pusher section to jam the porcelein down if its still in there.

 

Hello everyone. I crushed the porsolin and only have the sleeve in #4. The #7 which is hard to get to has both to be removed. I am currently trying to build something, anything. I am up for any sugrstions. Thanks again everybody. I am up a creek.

 

Does anyone have any ideas for an alternative tool for removing both parts of the spark plug? These plugs should be a manufactures deffect.

 

They sell a tool at napa auto parts, its way better the the rotunda tool. Cost around $100 bux i think.

 

This is what you need. It will remove with or without the porcelain.

Dang that is pretty cheap from what I have been hearing they cost. Also like how they have the socket for removing the plugs right there...most guys that are coming to get that tool might not need the socket anymore.

 

It just so happens that I found that very same kit for that price at a non franchise name, old timer (no offence) auto store. They seem to be more willing to go over and beyond to help a customer. The porsolein kit did not work at all. I chipped away unti the die would bite in and push the rest of the porsolien down. Thank you everyone that replied.

 

I had 4 plugs break on my 04 5.4L. Bought the NAPA tool and it worked like a champ. It's a 2 part tool. First part pushes the ceramic down and second part taps/pulls out the stuck/broken ground part.
I would recommend using a shop vac to vacum out the broken pieces of ceramic after using the "pusher" before pulling out the ground part.
Could have bought something different, and maybe a little cheaper, but this was on a Sunday and I had to get to work on Monday...

 

get the lisle kit i have one and it worked flawlessly on my truck. i had the same fiasco happen to me--4 plugs broke off in the head at only 35k miles. i bought the lisle tool and was very relieved when they all came out just like it said they would
