Message	PB Blaster and a jack handle on my wrench. Took about 20 minutes. Plug looks like shit, there was also a little pool of oil at the bottom of the plug's well in the head, so I'm thinking Joe's idea may have some relevance here. I'm going to pick up a new plug at CZP tomorrow. This one wasn't crossthreaded, but it seems to have taken a sliver of thread with it. Hopefully the threads on the head are okay.
