Auolite Ford Spark Plugs removal instructions

Please be advised that Ford has substantially revised the procedure for removing the High thread plug. The main changes are that the engine must be at room temperature. This would mean in most cases that the car needs to sit overnight in the shop. Next, loosen the plugs ⅛-¼ turn, fill the plug well with carburetor cleaner and let it sit for minimum of 15 minutes before removing the plugs. The previous procedure asked you to measure the first turn torque and fill up the well with Aero Kroil penetrating lube. The new procedure supposedly works better.
