I got home from college did a ton of work to the engine and i've been meaning to change this one plug but cannot get to it because the COP bolt will not come out. Tried to pry it out like someone said to do and it just wont give. Need tips to get this thing out. I'm affraid to mess up the PI intake.

 

Will it not turn, or is it just stripped and not coming out?

 

either A- spray it and let it sit for a bit
or B- Push down on the coil and then try removing the bolt. I had to do both for one of mine.

 

when you get it out, it will come out.DONT FORGET TO PUT A LITTLE BIT OF ANTISIZE ON THE BOLTS NO MORE PROBLEMS!!

 

It feels like the bolt or where it threads into the intake is just spinning. Thats what it feels like to me. The damn thing just keeps spining

 

yeah spray it with some lube, let it sit. then push on the coil to get the pressure off the bolt and just go with it. If you can get an air gun on it that would help too. Mine also spun one of those bolts i pulled it out and glued it back in.

 

I just bought a air compressor today too

 

I just had that some exact problem yesterday, and what I ended up doing was drilling the head off the bolt and removing the COP. When I did that the threaded stud screwed right out, and I just bought a replacment bolt.

 

+1 to that. Use a cutoff wheel or drill and remove the head of the COP bolt.
