Dealing with a 2002 4.7 Ram 1500 2WD
Spark plug threads broke off in head. Don’t have time tbh. Currently rebuild an Eclipse.

7 new plugs and one plug with no broken ceramic just threads. Do you guys think I could limp it to a shop or should I just have it towed. Be goin 20ish miles about 35-45mph all the way there. What are y’all’s thoughts.

Also. I tried extracting it but. It really in there. Original plugs at 180k. Let it soak in PB blaster for days but no movement prior so. Kinda beating a dead horse.

Don't let the spark plug wire dangle around under the hood
Tie it off, so that the spark can't short out anything
