Ok got the driver side done, no problems. Now im at the #4 cylinder plug on the passanger side and the thing isn't screwing all the way down. I screwed it in the first time and noticed it was higher than the others and put the boot back on and some of the white is showing. I just broke the plug trying to get it down, knew I shouldn't have done that. I've attached pictures, they aren't too good with my cell phone. Not sure what to do here. I can tell it's not going all the way down because the anti-seize is going with the threads until a certain point then it stops. :mad: :mad:

Cross threaded ! ---how are the threads on that plug??? How are the thread in the head????
 
ya it looks cross threaded. those bottom threads are kinda flat where as the top ones are nice and sharp.
