FoT I was wondering if anyone has a clever method of putting in a cylinder head freeze plug without removing the head. I was instructing at our drivers school this past weekend when it blew out. I ma

Can you drill a hole through the firewall and drive it out or yank it out that way? Duncan -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://autox.team.net/pipermail/fot/attachments/201

Duncan, I think that?s where I?m going next, the freeze plug is just about in line with the bottom of the dash or close. The good thing is it blew the old plug completely out. I just need to knock a

I'm not suggesting that it can't be done... but... there's a good chance that you'll get to a point where you'll be wishing that you had pulled the head to do it... Good luck! Glen Duncan, I think th

Hi Jim.? Consider this.? Pulling the head may give you the most correct fit, and also may be quicker, all things considered.? When I was racing, and had to pull the head at the race track, I could ge

I had one pop out on me at the Sunday afternoon race of the Kastner cup at Road Atlanta a few years ago. I was bummed to miss out on the remaining laps so figured I did not want that to happen again.

I routinely strap that rear plug or lock it in with a 10/32 and a flat washer folded in on either side. Overkill... perhaps, but that sucker isn't coming out. Glen I had one pop out on me at the Sund
