Anything stronger than JB weld??
 
Trying JB weld in a socket to pull that easy out off of the plug... letting it set over night.. think i'll put enough torque on that socket to break that JB weld??? If it does break, any other suggestions?

I had got this stuff at pepeboys, it looked like quicksteel, but it was like jb weld on steroids.

Seriously I would prolly take that head off, if you know the threads are messed up you may have to helicoil it anyway.

if JB doesn't work and it just rounds it again. I'm going to drill the bitch out down a 1/2" past the plug threads that are left in.. and leave the rest of the ez out.. then run that stubby snap on easy out in w/ the socket head on it. and i should be game.. unless the plug threads break again and leave the rest of the ez out and threads in.. which i'd just drill the rest out and make sure the piston was TDC.. then use my long magnet extension and pull everything out. :6 i've got a plan

quit being a cheapass and take the head off to take out all the broken metal bits your ------- around is going to leave in there for your valves to eat.

lol, fixed it without removing the head man. and teh JB weld thing did NOT work.. it didn't do worth a ---- actually, just crunched it all up in the socket and it all spun out.. Stud extractors ------- rock, that tool saved my ass.. and a 14mm tap saved my ass on the retapping of the plug hole

JB Weld > FMU

JB Weld is more advanced than a FMU.

ok, anybody think this will hold?: just bought a car for cheap but the driver side window crank has already been stripped from vise grips, ok so i tried to think that i could get this bitch working sweet. i ended up drilling out a hole in the shaft that is used to turn it, then i tapped it then screwed a bolt into the hole while using JB as a locktite, let it dry. who thinks it will give up while rolling the window up? and if it does anybody know know any stronger?

That should hold fine. Just dont over crank it when lowering or raising the window.

i rethreaded to the existing threads.. just to get all of the remaining spark plug threads out. i didn't touch the alluminum head threads.
