I have a leaky freeze plug. It's the plug closes to the accessories (passenger) side of the engine. From under the car, I can see the plug. I can get my hand on it also. I can probably put a 3/8" extension on it, hit it with a hammer and get it to turn, and pull it.
What I am concerned with is getting the new one in there. Has anyone here installed a new freeze plug while the engine is the car? Were you able to get a good straight-on shot at the new freeze plug to press it into the block properly?
Also, where I can buy freeze plugs? I can't seem to find any parts outlets that sell them. I guess the dealer is the only choice.
Thanks!
