I attempted to change the plugs, due to buying this used, but I had aproblem on one of the plugs, as it broke and I'm having trouble gettting the rest of the plug out. What are some of the ways that you would suggest as how to get it out?

If you can't remove the rest with a pair of vice-grips then your best bet is to use an easy-out. If it is a rear plug you might have to break down the head to gain access. Using a torch around the threads of the spark plugs will help make the metal expand while using the easy out to help twist the rest of the spark plug out..
