Expansion plugs are pressed into openings left in the engine casting and seal them shut. Over time a plug can corrode, weep, or loosen in its bore. Signs this part may need replacing include seepage or wetness around a plug, visible corrosion on the plug face, or a plug that has shifted or pushed out. If a failed plug is the source of your leak, this kit is designed to replace it.
Before installing, consult the vehicle service information for the correct plug installation procedure and any required sealant.
