Do not even start removing your plugs until you have this tool in hand. I soaked the plugs in penetrating oil for 24 hours and 5 still broke. This tool is a life saver. The first step of crushing the remaining ceramic is very straight forward. The second step of extraction can take a little work. If you cannot get the extractor to start threading with the sleeve in, then remove the sleeve and start threading the extractor in until slightly snug. Then slide the sleeve over the extractor and continue threading the extractor until you hear the remaining piece break loose. You will feel it and hear it spin. Then start removing using the larger nut and nylon washer. With out this tool I can't even imagine the intensity of frustration I would have endured.
