plug issues. :(

okay. so I got some new NGK Iridiums and wire set to put in my EM1.. everything was going fine until I got to the 3rd plug (3rd from the right-most plug), and as I loosen the plug (counter-clockwise, obviously) it actually feels like its tightening up... it gets to a point where I can't loosen the plug anymore. I haven't tried to put force into removing the plug because I'm afraid something bad will happen.

anyone ever run into this issue?
I'm not sure if its cross threaded or not... I don't believe it's stripped.

It could be seized with carbon, so slowly apply more force to see whether it comes out. If so, be sure to apply some anti-seize on the spark plug threads before installing the new ones.
