I have a leaking freeze plug. It is in a hard to reach position because the oil dipstick goes right infront of it. Is there any easy way of replacing a freeze plug, or special method. Because i have tryed and tryed and can't get the damn thing out with no luck. This is the last thing i have to do to fix my cooling system. I've replaced thermostat, waterpump, and radiator.

If the plug isn't bad you can just tap it back in, preferrably with a rubber mallett. Other wise if one edge is out you might be able to yank it out and just replace it with a new one.
