Coolant leak

Looks like it's coming out of a freeze plug

Video angle does not show the full plug

Is it rusted out in the middle?

Or

Has the freeze plug popped out of it's hole?

The medic

Expansion plug- freeze plug same thing!

The medic

I know this is a stupid question

Is this an emergency?

Do you have time to do a permanent take stuff apart and install a new one?

Would a temporary fix (do it right soon) work for the present time?

If you can get a hand and a wrench in there

Can really tighten this up good

Can get the right size

Other stores have these too

Whachu think?

The medic

Roger that

It's the back plate and rubber that must fit in the hole

The closer, the better

If it's hard to measure

You might use your imagination and try bottle/ jug caps/ sockets (my favorite)/ anything round that fits the hole that could be measured once removed

The medic

When you install these

Sometimes it's ezier to sorta "pre-tighten" it so that it "drags" the hole as it enters

Since there is no way to "back-hold" the assembly, it will spin if installed loosely

The friction from the "drag" will keep it from spinning as you continue to tighten
