im having the block serviced and the freez pugls are getting removed for the cleaning can i reuse them? if not, are there better one to get and whats the average price?

second, oil gally plugs. i remove them to clean out the oil gallies right? can or should these be reused?

 

why would you want to reuse them(though you can) since new ones are like $1.50 a piece, its worth it for the piece of mind, same with the oil galley plugs, I dont personally reccomend reusing either, since it is possible to nick them on removal(though probably hard to nick them to any degree thats going to make a difference)

 

ok thanks i didnt know thats why i asked. now i know should i get these at dodge?

 

I always do, but any autoparts store should sell them, they are all the same cheap galvanized steel

 

Buy brass one's. The factory galvanized one's are thin and corrode too easy. You can only get the brass plugs through a parts house like NAPA.

 

good, to know dano, wish I had done that now...he he +1 to your rep points

 

yeah nelson bros told me to get brass also.......ive tried autozone and advanced but ill try napa.

 

just called napa they said they ony have the plugs for the head. any other ideas

 

What size and year of motor? Prob 1.39's but I'd like to be sure. The parts store may not list them by car, so the next best way is by size of the plug.

 

its a 2.0 98 rt. most of these guys told me they could match them up if i bring in the old ones but i have to pucnch them out. also are they the same size as the heads? would it tell me the plug size in the haynes manual i have?
