Core Plug

[BoostJunkie]

Right guys was finishing up the gt after the fucking water pump had frozen causing the alternator belt to snap.

so i've sorted that out and fitted new belt etc and was putting the anti freeze in and after a bit i just heard it all running back out again was like shit so went under to see where it was leaking check to see if the water pump was sealed properly its fine noticed that the antifreeze seemed to be coming out from behind the cam belt cover

so got it off to notice that with the water pump and the block being frozen it popped the core plug out there (very fucking lucky that was all ).

Now can i use the same core plug or do i need to get a new one ?

Cheers mate was what i thought, as for the nick of it its in good condition but as said for peace of mind i think i'll get a new one .

I've had one pop out on me before.. And used it again, and never had any problems.. Just make sure it's in good nick still tho!

thats why i put this up as i was seriously considering using the old one as its mint nothing wrong with it but wasn't sure if it would come out again or not was gonna put some silicone sealer on it if i was gonna use it, but i've ordered a new one from toyota now anyway so i'll wait for that but cheers rob .
