Ok... here's my story. I snapped off the #1 glow plug (one closest to the front of car). Followed all the steps for removing broken plug. But when I got to the step to tap a 5/16" thread in the body of the plug, I snapped off the tap inside the plug... YUP! the tap broke while wedged in the body of the plug. Now what? Guess the head is coming off. any other way?
