EA82 block coolant drain plugs


Recommended Posts

Where the heck is the driver side drain plug? I can only locate the one on the passenger side which seems to be in plain site. Maybe I'm overlooking it? And what size alan do I use? I don't have any alan-head sockets. Thanks for any input.

The heads are the same for both sides, so one drain will be towards the front and the other will be towards the rear. They are non-allen hex-headed plugs (like the oil pan drain plug). The plugs with the recessed hex (allen) are not the drain plugs, they are access plugs for (if I remember right) wrist pin removal.

Ah-HAH!!! No wonder I couldn't find the other. I couldn't find my Haynes manual, which I'm assuming has that info so that's why I posted. Thanks, this helps.
