Junior Posted February 7, 2022 Share #1 Posted February 7, 2022 2007 rsv. On right side of engine I noticed anti freeze on each cylinder pooling. I removed cylinder covers and found coolant leaking from plugs ? In each cylinder. Help ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted February 7, 2022 Share #2 Posted February 7, 2022 Fairly common. That are line freeze plugs. Cheap and easy to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junior Posted February 7, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted February 7, 2022 Why are they leaking ? How do you pull them out to replace and where do you get replacement ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted February 7, 2022 Share #4 Posted February 7, 2022 They leak because the o-ring gets old, so you will need a new o-ring. I believe they just pull out and the cover holds them in place, but somebody else will have a better insight into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vzuden Posted February 8, 2022 Share #6 Posted February 8, 2022 The thread in the center of the freeze plugs is the same as that on the tip of a spark plug with removable tip. Just thread the spark plug into the freeze plug and pull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
