Freeze Plugs


Recommended Posts

Ok, heres the problem. One of the freeze plugs on my freshly rebuilt (less than 2000 miles or so) L24 apprears to be leaking. Not so bad that it's dripping or anything but theres a little anti-freeze residue on the freeze plug itself and some spray on the underside of the hood. I'm sure it sprayed a little at road temp and pressure. Can the freeze plugs simply be tapped in a little further or should I just go out and get a new set?

Well if it was installed right, it should have Permatex on it to help it seal. Also when installing freeze plugs you should use a specail freeze plug installer so that the depth is right. The edge of the freeze plug should be flush with the block/lip of the hole or close too it. So tapping it farther in wont really help most likely. I would just take that one out and put a new one in.
