I was changing out my spark plugs when I noticed one of them was cracked and the whole piece that sticks out of the engine is moving back and forth. How can I remove the plug without doing anymore damage or breaking it completely? If the part does break off does it mean I cant get the plug out? Please Help!

You should still be able to get the plug out without any problems.

Yes the part that breaks does not matter, I would use a spark plug socket and WD40 and the plug should comes straight out. Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
