Broken spark plug

Asked by Not_My_Day Jul 14, 2019 at 12:44 PM about the 2005 Nissan Altima 2.5

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Ok so I have one spark plug that got stuck now it's broken
inside of the head just the threads every thing else came
out after braking 2 extractors I'm forced to replace the head
on my 2005 nissan altima its costing 1100 I have 1300
invested into the car already is it worth repairing the car to
sell it or should I just trash it??

I don't see why you have to replace the head. You probably need to remove it and have a machine shop remove the plug and rethread it but not necessarily a new head. You must make the decision to fix or scrap the car since I don't know the miles or condition.
