Spark plugs breaking is common while giving your vehicle a tune up. Perhaps you canted the socket while trying to remove it. Perhaps it failed structurally as a result of some manufacturing defect. Not having been there, it would be difficult to say why this happened to you specifically.

Well the easiest way is to pull the engine. But that's quite a task for someone that doesnt know how to change a spark plug. Pull the wires off the spark plugs on the engine. Not the box where they all hook into. Use a ratchet and a spark plug socket of the correct size to GENTLY break loose the spark plug. Twist plug out with fingers in a counter-clockwise direction. Reverse these instructions for installation. Try not to break them off or you will be in big trouble.

How do you change the spark plugs in a 1987 Chevy Celebrity?

To change the spark plugs in a Chevy Celebrity: 1. Give the spark plug boot a twist to free it up from the spark plug, then pull on the boot to remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug. 2. Use a 5/8" spark plug socket with an extension and ratchet or breaker bar to loosen then remove the spark plug. 3. Set the gap on the new plug to .045" then screw it back into the spark plug hole in the head. Tighten the spark plug and replace the spark plug wire. I change the spark plugs one at a time to keep from getting the spark plug wires on the wrong spark plug.
