As I have the V6 in bits I thought I'd do a compression test before starting reassembly - just incase I need to keep digging.
No.3 spark plug came out fine. No.5 decided it didn't want to leave its snug home.
1st time I've ever used a rattle gun on a plug!
Not something I'd recommend but did the job beautifully.
Think I'll make sure the threads are sparkly before I get the compression tester stuck in there......
