While attempting to remove the ignition wires from the spark plugs, one of the wires broke inside the metal tube. I removed the valve cover, hoping to be able to remove the metal tube and the broken wire. Does the metal tube unscrew or is there another way I can remove the wire and sparkplug?

Hi carlograss,

The metal tube is fixed quite tightly and best not to remove if possible.

Try using a metal hook to take out the plug cable parts.
