Recently had to put in a freeze plug (35 dodge p/u) real PITA as its behind the bellhousing. Anyway it stayed in for 3 mos and now literally fell out! Now I have never been properly trained on freeze plug installation, but I thought the correct procedure was: clean the seat area, hit plug HARD w/hammer attempting to "pop" it preferably with one strike. The plug seems to be the right size but I didn't feel the "pop" I normally would. I fact I had to beat the crap out of it to get it in. (prob why it fell out) So who can tell me the correct way to do this?
