Hey guys,

So I'm stuck in Ely, NV and spark plug on cylinder 3 has blown out (it's completely loose), the plastic part of the coil holding it to the bolt has snapped as well. The one on cylinder 4 also feels a bit loose.

I need to drive 1.5 miles to the shop in the morning (gonna have to freeze it in the back of the van until they open).

Do I need to take the cable out of the fuel injector for these cylinders? Also, do I need to do the same with the coil?

I'm also worried that a bunch of stuff has fallen into the cylinder, seeing as how it's completely loose. Would I be better off with a tow?

I just need to get it sorted ASAP and want to get there early so I don't have to freeze my *** off for another night.

Anything advice is appreciated!

Thanks

 

Get it on the hook..

 

You don't list a year. Is that a V10? They are notorious for blowing spark plugs.

 

Yeah I got it sorted. Blew the spark plug out and ripped the threads!

I unplugged the fuel injector and coil for the problematic plug and drove it a few miles.
