Sometimes you do get a bit of crap that drops into the engine. Just turn the engine over before you put your new plugs in and it'll blow it all out. Have fun!
FFS don't use a cheapo easy out!!!!
we use a snap on one, the threads are very shallow and it takes the abuse.
I personally wouldn't try it with anything else.
if the easy out breaks, it's head off.
