hey whats up people?...was doing a sparkplug change and , i think i got my trailing sparkplug in the back stripped from inside ....all my sparkplugs came out very easy and putting in the 3 plugs were no problem (L1,t1,L2) , except when i try putting in my sparkplug into the back trailing(t2) i cant seem to find any fitment ...im thinking i stripped the inside.... i would appreciate it if anyone can provide me with more information regarding how to get this fixed....

Do the threads appear damaged?
Swap trailing plugs to see if the other plug also has trouble screwing in.

If you can't get the other plug to screw in, you might have to tap it out.
I had to tap a hole on a friend's RX8.
But if you tap it, be careful not to introduce metal flakes into the chamber.
Add grease or anti-seize to the tap to capture the flakes.
Turn the tap in a few times and then remove it.
Wipe off the tap, apply grease/anti-seize, and repeat until you get all the way through.

tried swapping and using my old sparkplug just to check if it would fit, but still no fitment with the sparkplug and T2 hole...i can feel the theads inside of the t2 hole...but no luck fittin it in ... very strange position to this plug...using a swivel to take it out was easy and nothing appeared cracked or broken....i dunno why this plug wont fit???
