Thumbs up Stuck Plugs

I tried to change my plugs today and the first 2 on the passenger side are stuck. I cant break them loose. I didnt try any more of them. I have changed them before and have all the right tools. The engine is stone cold. Any suggestions?

DONE 2h 45m heated truck for 10 min and used brut strength.
Thanks for the help guys.

Well if it's cold you could try running it for a bit.
The heads will warm up at at a different rate to the plugs and that might be enough to make a difference.

Good luck.

Wink

I am sure he will get them done today

I called Al last night and told him what to do.

He was just afraid to put any muscle into them.
