Welp, I've seen it all when it comes to plug removal...remove the plug wires with a proper plug wire tool so you do not pull the ends off of the wires,rotate the wire on the plug a few times before pulling on it. Once the wires are all off spray some good penetrant around the plugs.."Move It" PB Blaster, some kind of penetrating fluid..then go have a nice day. Next day put the proper wrench on them and the suggestion of impact wrench is good..they should come out. We always used to put anti sieze on the threads of the new plugs..never had problems with them when the customer came back in a few years for another tune up. I have seen plugs rust to the point the walls were paper thin. We had an old Buick Grand national come in that a guy was retoring..seven of eight plugs broke off with the slightest of effort. We removed the broken plugs by heating what was left red hot with the brazing tip, then doused it with cold water from a hose...you could then turn them out with pliers.. blow the cylinder out with the air hose and job done.I have taken broken ones out with a big square shaft easy out....breaking off a plug is nasty and you can avoid it with the penetrate and lots of patience.
