Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

It did the trick, but only after about 4 other solutions failed.
Got a new to me C2 Cab.
While changing the spark plugs, I dropped one while pulling it out and it's in the cylinder. The tube came out with the coil pack and the spark plug is where the tube would be. I can feel it where it fell, but cant seem to get it out.
as mentioned above use a magnet or another type of grabber sold at automotive parts stores that can grab it like this:
Amazon

or you could turn the car upside down and shake it out
LMAO, not at you please understand, but that is why I choose not to do certain engine fixes myself. I always (ok, most always) make the job more difficult than it needs to be and then pay someone to fix my 'oopses'.
Again, sorry for your luck. I can see me doing the same thing. You'll get it out.
Oh man, I feel for you. It is something that would happen to me. I had something break off when I was changing plugs on my motorcycle. I ended up getting creative. I could lift it but not pull it out. I had to fashion a suction hose small enough on my shop vac. It did the trick, but only after about 4 other solutions failed.
Well, did ya get it out?
Another idea if shop vac or grabber doesn't hold--hot glue gun, glue that sucker to something flexible you can pull it out with?
