Just did one of those dreaded engines last month. 6 of 8 split in half, and found Sea Foam spray was the ticket along with the tool. Installed new one piece plugs from Napa.
5.4L 3v Spark Plug Removal Instructions
Well I finally had one come in the shop recently after not seeing them for a long time. So I decided to shoot a video on the current favorite removal method that is working for us shops out there, since there are a few videos out there but they are all of poor quality. This works about 90% of the time. It seems you will usually break one out of 8 though and for that I have a new video coming out showing in detail the extraction process made simple. I hope this helps as this can be very costly. Most shops charge a half and hour more in additional labor each plug that breaks this can really add up!

Sorry, but I wouldn't think of using an impact gun on a spark plug.
I'll take the slow sure way.
