Is there any way to remove/extract a glow plug that has been broke off without removing the head.
Was doing a commpression check on a jetta a4 and the # 4 glowplug head snaped right off.

I've tried a extractor tool but it slips. I afraid to drill it out due to the metal chips and shavings ending up in the cylinder.
