Plugs are cheap, life is short, change 'em out when the book says to.

Plugs stuck in heads is not unusual but for Porsche’s it’s less common.

Now on my 2006 Mustang GT.. the plugs get stuck. It’s terrible and common. Ford redesigned the heads at some point because the problem was so bad. The plugs have a pilot nose that just get carbon filled.

There is a whole procedure. Engine at certain temp, crack plugs loose. Add carb cleaner to plug well. Wait for things to soften. Work plug back and forth while monitoring torque, etc. All while the plugs squeal as you remove them,

Fun times!
