Do you want to let us know how you got broken plug out?
Did you run a tap into plug hole and clean up threads, after you got broken part out?
did you put plug in dry or with a tiny bit of neverseize on threads?
did you use a torque wrench to tighten??
Just asking!

Hi
We drilled the old spark plug shell out with a 31/64 drill bit. Then took a 14mm tap and I retapped it. My father in law made a guide that fit in the hole of the spark plug so when I drilled the hole will to straight. The truck runs smooth now. Took about 3 hours.
thanks
