I have a 99 honda accord that the spark plug boots have melted around the spark plug, i have clean out cylinder 1-3 but the 4th has alot more then the other and i can not seem to get anything out of it. Any ideas how to get it out? I used a torch and heated up a socket that thought maybe that would work and it did kinda.....but i noticed metal down there that isnt supposed to be so im guessing its from the spark plug boot. so now im at a loss...

The metal down there should be loose if it is from the boot. Try use a skinny magnet to collect all the debris.
