Thanks for sharing your horror story with us and how it worked out in the end. I'm preparing to tackle the dreaded #4. I've been prepping with Liquid Wrench that according to some YT vids tests superior to PB (besides I can't stand the stink of PB). I have acetone on hand for cleaning aluminum welds and your video convinced me to give it a try along with the LW.
Take your time. If it moves slightly thread it in and out a few times. When it moves free at that point back it out just a little further until you feel resistance then thread it back in and out. Do this in small increments. It'll come out. Don't force it.
50/50. May need to add some acetone if it sits in the dispensor for a while. It seems to evaporate. If you don't see the liquid micro bubbling on the sprayed surface I'd add acetone. Will be more pink color too, not so Tranny fluid red.
Thank you!!
Now I gotta use TH-cam university to become a welder

You can make reverse bolt tread in the hole of the leftover glow plug and then unscrew by the bolt.
Be tackling this on my lml duramax with a broken plug. Thanks for the great info.
Dealer snapped it off and just welded it shut. Told me the head needs to come off. Min 20 hrs. Ill try this instead.

This is the smartest way! Awesome
