<P class=MsoNormal> So I have a 1953 Morgan with an
original Standard Vanguard engine. The engine is very similar to a TR3 engine.
It recently blew a head gasket and overheated. I had the head resurfaced and
bolted it all back together, started it up and discovered that the freeze plug
at the back of the head is leaking now. Dang! Wish that I had thought about that
before reassembling... On the Morgan the freeze plug is about 10” away from the
firewall and not as close as it is on a TR3. I do not want to pull the head
again. Any known tricks on how to get the old plug out and the new plug in
without removing the head? <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> TIA,<o:p></o:p></P>
