Take the boots off (spark plug wires) one by one and spray wd-40 down there. Wouldnt trust PB-Blaster as it WILL eat through rubber.
Drive around for a bit and take em out hot. The block will expand with the heat and you will be able to get em out easier.
Remember ....lefty lucy, righty tighty....even the best of us forget this.

Fully stock with tire pressure at manuf. 35, oil change the second the gas mileage drops, etc I can get 18.8 on the highway using the cruise control and only doing 65mph MAX. And I HAVE to pay attention and really be trying to increase the gas mileage.
Once I only do around town mileage, it drops to 16.4 or lower.
If I go 70mph, even with the cruise, I drop to 16 and change. Onve I stop caring, I'm in the 15's.
I think 10mpg with a lift, 33s, trailer, and hills would be eXcellent. Not what you want to PAY for, but considering the front of the X is like pushing a piece of plywood through the wind...
