I had a shop try to take care of a #5 glow plug. They got the threads loose and partially out but it got stuck and won’t move in or out. I have it to the point that I can wiggle it but it still won’t turn or go back in… I keep using various lube chemicals but haven’t gotten anywhere. I try tapping it down and nothing, and pulling hasn’t worked… not quite daily but ever other day or so I have been working on it for about 1 month. I stop before I get too frustrated and bust the plug… HELP

It’s broke… had to break, drill and tap mine out. Well I took it to a diesel shop.
