Arrgghhhh!

Found out yesterday when going to change my HT leads, that the bottom half-inch of one of the old HT leads has broken off around the spark plug, on the cylinder that's half buried under the bulkhead To make matters worse, the rubber is also still there, and it won't come out! Have tried all manner of picks, bent bits of wire etc but to no avail - and just cant get any purchase on it (and its hard to get access to that sparkplug at the best of times!).

So now I have an immobile Cerbera, due to trying to cure a slight misfire (everything else was going really well)

Anyone else encountered this?

Is there room to screw something into it such as a bolt or large threaded screw kind of like a corkscrew fashion? You could attach it to a rod by welding/ glueing maybe. Or a nut or something round the outside of it in a reverse corkscrew type way?

Did try that, but didnt get very far. My garage has I think sorted it now (I'll find out exactly what he did tomorrow!) so looking forward to getting it back.....
