luvtufsh Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 I bought a new drain plug and removed the old plug but the new plug will not go in. tried to put the original plug back in and in will not go in now. Both just turn with out engaging to tighten up. Any ideas Im stumped??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1004ron Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 It doesn't take much to strip those plugs and/or the thread in the radiator. Post a photo of the two plugs together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvtufsh Posted September 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 here are the drain plugs they are not a tread type but a twist lock type. Thanks for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvtufsh Posted September 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 I called a radiator repair shop and he said I may not be pushing it in far enought or not have it aligned correctly or he said the ears it engages to may have broke inside the radiator. Said I may need a new raidiator. Cheap plastic crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
