They have to be concave facing outwards - after all, these things are a lot easier to move if you are pushing on the concave face, and you want it to be easier for you to install the core plugs than

John and all, I am assuming you are talking about the mk2 1196. The core plugs go in in dished out. Once these are in you ping them with a small hammer or ball peen and sorta dish them in. This sets

ISTR that you place the core plug in the opening convex out then strike them with a ball peen hammer to cause them to expand into the hole in the block. The finished result is either a flat or slight

Fair comments by those who replied after me - I guess my MG must have used a different style of core plug, resulting in my highly misleading advice! Apologies, Richard & Daffy -- Important Notice: Th

Two questions: What is the best way to remove core (freeze) plugs from the block? What is the best way to replace them ? i.e. is a sealant required, are they just pounded in , etc. There are a few on

Freeze plugs are removed easily with a hammer and a flat blade screwdriver Just punch a hole and pry out. The correct way to install is with an installation tool. The kit has different size ends that

It would be wise to replace all of them while it is easy to do it. They rust out from the inside, and one of them could start leaking the day after you reinstall the engine. A couple of years ago, I

I just noticed that I have a couple of leaky core plugs on the right side of my engine (late-model 1300). Can I expect to find these at the local parts place, or would I have to order them from a sp
