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!

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 new one in.
I?m pretty sure I can go under the dash and through with a piece of ? or even
?? round
bar about 2? long which I can scrounge at work.
I?ll have to remove some stuff but still better than pulling the head.

Can you drill a hole through the firewall and drive it out or yank it out that
way?

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 may have enough room between the firewall to use a short blunt air chisel
but I have my doubts so if anyone has a better one please let me know.
Thanks as always,
jim g
