Thanks to everyone for the help. Update: I had not sprayed any silicone lubricant in the hole previously, primarily because I was out. A few...
@rjparker - Yes. If I take the car to a garage and pay them the $215 to $250 they charge an hour, in about a week, they will do the same thing I...
@Tombukt2 - Because it's two-day delivery for a long x-acto knife, I could try your trick with the gasket scraper. When this all started, my wife...
@rjparker - Okay, so you're a fan of garages and wherever you live, the mechanics have decades of experience and wouldn't charge at least $300 to...
@rjparker - Thanks for the photo. I thought that may be what it looks like, which is why I haven't tried. My reluctance to cut it as you and...
I've thought about burning it, but I'm worried that could damage the plug and then I'd have that mess. And yeah, I haven't had the cover off, but...
If I ever get the dang thing out... is there some kind of lubricant I apply to the next one? I've changed the coils twice on this car and have...
I've seen that suggested on something I found via CoPilot. How would you get the air underneath?
Update: I'm still messing with this. Argh! I tried a tool like the one @ASRDogman suggested via DM. I guess I am going to have to cut it up and...
If either of you or anyone has an answer regarding checking the coils with a multimeter... I am reluctant to put the coil back whose end I am...
I haven't tried removing the spark plug because there is a 2.25" rubber boot (tip) on top of it. The one I have here that I popped-off the coil I...
This afternoon, I tried running the screwdriver down and sliding it around. I even put the screwdriver in and twisted it sideways, then tried to...
Not really the boonies, but still Florida. I haven't gone out there yet. Was thinking about trying to get a thin screwdriver between the rubber...
I did not mean to ghost you for a month. Sorry. My try with the needlenose took a small bite out of the rubber, so I ordered some hemostats and...
Actually, the question isn't dumb. I am... I have been getting a misfire on Cylinder #4, so I was trying to do the thing where you flip the coil...
Thanks. I'll definitely check it out. (I assume they are in the not-hurting-anything-until-it-throws-a-code category?)
@Mendel Leisk: Mine looks like yours, except mine had a light coating of dirty oil and I didn't get too deep into cleaning around the white goo,...
Thanks. I had thought about getting some Gunk brand something -- I have some Speed Perks to burn-off over the next few days -- but the engine...
I know this is off-topic for the title and when I'm ready to do it, I will make a new post -- right now, I guess it may be leaking, but not enough...
@Mendel Leisk: I don't remember whose video I was following -- as you know, the Prius is very different than my old Fords, so the first time I...
