What do you think of this method for removing spark plug tubes?

I've been using a rubber transom plug - a method that I saw in Pedro's garage. It usually takes me 3 or 4 tries to take out the tube. This seems like it might be a little easier as long as there isn't a risk of damaging anything.

Remember to remove the spark plugs first, lol!

Long bolt and suitable size washer works also.

I've about had it with Neil pronouncing the man's name "porsh"! :p
It's his name and it's not up for debate! :matchup:

Fun videos, Neil! This method looks better than the bolt/washer setup, just because less parts.

The washer method works really well. All at the hardware store for a $1. Tough to beat.

Be kind ,poor Neil has a speech impediment.
He is also doing a lot to get nervous types to buy Boxsters. The noob Boxster community needs that visual diy stuff. The pronunciation we can overlook.How is your pronunciation of Worcester Sauce ?:-)

Only downside is having to remove the spark plugs.

Otherwise, the video is a bit long to describe such a simple task.

Flawless, of course. :D

Brits take pride in mispronouncing all foreign words. Like pronouncing Jose Djosie and Mercedes Merseidees.
