Default sparkplug stuck in head

my friend has a 88 crx that he wants to sell, it doesnt run, but he says its just cuz there is a bad plug stuck in the head, i was wondering how hard it is to get a plug like that out, and he only wants a couple hundred bucks for it....

is it broaken off in the head? if the threaded part is busted from the head the you will have to take the head off and turn it out that way which on a honda the head is easy to get off. good luck

If the plug isn't broken off in the head, you can put a few drops of oil on it and let the oil seep into the threads. It'll come out after that.
