if i didn't use one of my sparkplugs, could i still turn the engine on and drive it around???
coz one of the sparkplugs i wanna changed break and i can't gget it off..so i just wanna ask..

thanks

 

as long as its still threaded in then I guess, but you shouldn't really drive it around like that to much. And I wouldn't get on it too hard.

 

The car will run like ****.Get it out.

 

Yes, it's drivable in an emergency, but will run so rich as to wash down the cylinder walls with fuel.

 

plus the engine is out of balance when its like that. Not good for internals I would think

 

coz i'm planning to bring my car to the nearest autoshop..and i hope my car could move..or is it better to use a tow truck??

thanks

 

If nearest auto shop is like 2 or 3 miles, then I'd do it, but not too much further. Besides, with a little more effort, you should be able to get it out. Did you strip it? If you did you may want to get a very sharp chisel and tap it in the direction of loosening it. It may work.

You guys should post some ways that he can get it out, so he doesn't pay an arm and two legs to some two bit shop

 

The right tool always works,just a matter of getting the right combo.

 

If you do go out and run like that, disconnect the injector on the affected cylinder that way you wont wash down that cylinder with fuel.

 

good thinking!
