[diesel_mercedes] Core Plugs

 

In the Auto Trade ;

They're properly called ' Welch Plugs ' .

I've had a few of the flat typ pop out over the hears but never a cup typ one , even when they were *so* rusty they disintegrated...

I too prefer the brass ones .

I appreciate all the freeze plug, info - but, after 55 of years of driving 40 or 50 cars and trucks all over the country - I don't recall ever having a freeze plug popping out, unless I was removing it myself for some reason. My plugs have all been pounded in nice and firmly. I may have had one leak a dribble once upon a time. My guess is that passenger cars have a hard time popping loose freeze plugs, but maybe trucks and industrial engines are another story. In conclusion, "freeze plug" is a pretty sorry name for this thigamajig.
