You can most likely knock it out with a screwdriver and a mallet, and tap a new one in with a mallet, that is if it's easily accessible,,, some require that various parts and pieces be removed or at least removed to the side..

For a 1994 F 150 6 cyl pick up w/ 100,000 mi--
if the radiator has ben repaired by a mechanic should this go bad after about 2 months? Anit freeze is leaking & logic to me says if the radiator was repaired properly this wouldn't happen. I don't have $$ to throw away!!

Thank you!
