If the hex,is still in the spark plug hole,just unscrew it,and replace with a new one,if the hex is gone,use a screw extractor,to remove it.
If the spark plug was broken,by some one,installing the spark plug or did it break on it`s own?If it broke on it`s own ,chances are,the hex is still there,the part of the spark plug that the socket fits onto.Take a 5/8 size spark plug socket,and slip it on the hex of the spark plug,if it is still there.Put a extention to put in the spark plug socket,and then a ratchet,and remove what is left of the spark plug,by turning the ratchet counter clock wise.To replace the spark plug,buy a new one,and start turning it in the spark plug hole clock wise,by hand,so it is not cross threaded,Then tighten the spark plug with the ratchet,by turning it clock wise.If the spark plug has no hex for the socket to grab,a screw extrctor would have to be used.Purchase it at the parts store,and ask for a number 3/8 size screw extractor,bladed type,and tap it in the broken spark plug hole,and then turn the screw extractor with a wrench,or adjustable wrench,counter clock wise until it comes all the way out.
I was a slow typer ,and going fast as I can,I am sorry
I am here,and will help you if I can,but I am not a good typer,under pressure,or not,so give me time,I am an old man.
That is most likely a coil pack,with electrical wires going to it,the coil has a boot on it witch goes to a spark plug.Is compression coming out of the hole when running?
You will be able to remove the spark plug by inserting a 5/8 spark plug socket into the hole and turn it a little and hold it at the angle of the hole,it will slide over the hex of the plug.then just trun it counter clock wise.One end of the broken spark plug should be in the boot,in the coil.
I am going to send some pictures,if I can.Give me a minute.
Spark plug hex,is just below the white area.next to it is the boot,and next to it is the coil,and boot together.

I'm sorry. My husband is unsure of how to do that. I would like someone who could point me somewhere that has a step by step explanation. Of course we know it needs to be removed and replaced.

I don't know what a hex is. There are loose wires from the plug, it needs to be replaced but he doesn't know how to get into the engine to do so because it isn't just on top. He needs to take out parts of the engine and he just needs some information on how to do so. I don't have the instructions.
Ok, well thanks anyway. I will get someone else to help me with my problem. I don't know anything about cars, so I am doing the best I can.
Thank you very much for your detailed explanation. I appreciate the help. The spark plug broke on it's own. I think going through a puddle of water caused the damage. The issue that my husband is telling me is it is below other parts of the engine so he is unsure of how to get to it. He said part of the plug is still there and there are parts of wires hanging out of another place. Is there more than one spark plug in a car? Does he have to remove parts of the engine to get to it, or should he try and work around them?
Oh please excuse me, I was replying to some one else who was commenting to me. Those comments were not directed to you. I appreciate all the help you can give me. I am unsure of how the Q&A works on here. I have a comment that I just posted that was directed to you.
I am unsure if there is compression coming out of the hole. The car is somewhere else because it broke down on the road and we won't be able to get back to it until tomorrow because of downpours. I know that when the problem first started the car would run, but then when I started the engine again for my husband to look at it it stalled out. And then I tried again and it stalled out again. I wish my husband were here to talk with you, he had to go back to work.
Great. Thank you very much for your help. If I have any further questions (as I'm sure my husband most likely will when he gets home late tonight) I will be sure to come back and ask them. Thanks again for your help and your time it is greatly appreciated. Have a wonderful evening.
Oh pictures would be wonderful. Thank you!
