You can pull the sheilds out. Just grab them with a pair of pliers and pull. I changed the plugs in my 5.9 gas and never put them back in.

Some PB blaster will take care of that, spray it a couple of separate times and run it a few times.

Give it a little tap too. Just a few small ones, don't beat on it.
