Electrolysis between the dissimilar metals of the aluminum head and the thread of the spark plug, has caused a corrosion which has bonded the two parts together. You should try a spray penetrant such as WD-40, but this may only be partially effective. Never-the-less, repeatedly soak the bases of the spark plugs. Put a socket with breaker bar and tap it repeatedly with a hammer, but only relatively light blows. Alternatively you can use a manual impact driver and impact socket, but again avoid forceful blows. Also refrain from using an air wrench. Hopefully, by repeating this process over time, you can work the spark plugs loose.
If you can't loosen up some of the plugs your alternatives are to leave the plugs as they are, take it to a shop, or continue to force the plugs loose. If you continue to force the plugs loose, you will likely end up stripping out the softer, aluminum threads in one or more of the spark plug holes. Fortunately they manufacture spark plug thread inserts that include a tap tool to provide an oversize threaded hole for the insert to thread into, to restore the hole. You can do this on your own. If you take it to a shop, the same thing will probably happen to them, and they will install the same thread insert or a helical insert which requires specialized tools and may be superior to the diy thread insert.
When/if you finally replace the spark plugs, apply a liberal coating of anti-seize or never-seize; two competing products that do the same thing. These compounds form a thin dielectric film between the two metals that inhibit electrolysis, and have a sacrificial metallic component that is acted upon by the harder metal instead of the aluminum cylinder head. Any other bolts that you install in the aluminum engine or other aluminum parts should be liberally coated with this compound.
How do I change spark plugs in 2009 Toyota Corolla? whaT TOOLS I NEED
position of spark plugs on 2003 Toyota coralla
Corollas has a four cylinder engine, it means it has 4 spark plugs.
There is an article with video on how to change spark plugs at ; http://www.carbasics.co.uk Look in their 'how to' section.
The correct spark plug gap for a 2000 Toyota Corolla is .043 inches. Most spark plugs are pre-gapped, but its best to check before installation.
In the cylinder head, on top of the engine block.
Change the valve cover gasket.
Take it to a Toyota dealership
i have a 1996 corolla and the plug gap is .032 but when buying spark plugs ask the shop where you buy them. they will tell you.
it could be running on only two or three cylanders
under the plastic head cover (top of the motor) four bolts
take off the engine cover then you will see the 4 spark plugs on top remove the rail first then they will just pop off DON'T FORCE THEM OFF OR YOU WILL BRAKE IT
