I was going to remove the coolant plug and change the antifreeze and flush system out today and the plug rounded off on me. I thought I could use a pipe wrench and remove but the same thing. Just kept destroying the plug. I dont have much of the head of the plug left and need some advice on getting the plug out so I can replace it. Thanks.

You can grind the plug flat---then find a nut the right size and weld it to the plug----the heat from the weld job should help in removing the plug also----Good luck---

BB. be careful there if you get that plug too torn up you will have big problems..

If you have it all rounded off with not much square left a good option is to use a grinder & flatten it off on the bottom then drill it & run a pipe tap in to take a �� or 3/8� NPT tapered pipe thread then use a smaller pipe plug to re-seal it [drill & re-thread righ in the middle of the old plug]..

If it was mine I'd leave it alone, just remove the lower water pipe.
