Re: freeze plug problem

Haha, my Ford mechanic brother did the same thing when we were rebuilding a 350. We had to drill a little hole in the plug and through the use of a pair of needle nose pliers, a screw and slide hammer we were able to get it out.

Doesn't make any difference. Won't hurt a thing. Just put in another.
