How To Install Core Plugs #DarkMatterPikachu #FairmontProject

1. Thumbs up just for being a Ford man. How the LS's go in the engine master comp? Oh yeah that's right the Ford Clevors or Boss win mostly.

2. Whatever you want to call it is a pain in the ass to removing install

3. Thank you for using correct terminology, and yes, they are actually called Welch or core plugs, especially when my o.c.d kicks in. 😓😒😫🙌

4. Question is … Did it fall out?

5. 1:35 i need this Wehr can I found it ???

6. Are these anything like butt plugs??? I have lots of those and wonder if I could use them instead.

7. Actual name Welsh Plug , which happens to be my last name

8. There is another Youtuber says to put the freeze/core plugs in dry. So which one is it?

9. GO BLUE!!!!

10. 7:22 "Do people still dance?"

11. Expansion Plugs…

12. How does Justin install the front cam bearing on a 350 SBC? With the two holes at 10 and 2 ish or with one hole at noon and other hole somewhere else

13. Driving a 93' s10 2.8 L 6 cylinder 5 speed. Noticed my truck leaking cooant from the rear of the motor Once the motor begins to warm up it leaks all the coolant out but I cant find an exact location

14. "freeze plugs"… Yeah, even if they were for freeze protection, kinda irrelevant, since they invented stuff called "Antifreeze"!!!!

15. How would it freeze?

16. Finally a video calling core plugs by their proper name.

17. @EricTheCarGuy Is there any chance of punching the plug into the motor? Or is there something to stop it at a certain point?

18. Do you put silicon on freeze plugs or not. Some videos I've seen say not to. The guy beat it in metal on metal.

19. core plugs to drain the sand… what held the sand in place for pouring

20. I've noticed that everyone who watches these videos and comment that "you are doing it wrong" are all EXPERTS!! I'm an expert on aircraft engines I R an Airframe/Powerplant Mechanic with Inspection Authorization endorsement… Lol in all actuality I do have my A&P IA but by far am I an expert. I learn after every annual I do or after every cylinder I change out or trimming a Pratt & Whitney PT-6 I'm always learning

21. I'm not saying they're annoyed because of you or because of what you're saying or because they're bad people I myself when I'm building an engine to not want anybody talking to me or causing any form of distraction or any unbalanced in my work so another words when I'm trying to rebuild something and somebody has a camera in his touching all my parts as I'm trying to build it that would really get on my nerves because now they are running the risk of potentially misplacing something or ruining something

22. I really want to say thank you for making these videos cuz honestly and this takes courage to do what you're doing everyone knows that those mechanics are really annoyed with you and everything you're saying because a lot of the stuff you're saying is wrong but with that being said or also getting out a bunch of great information so thank you for having the courage to do this

23. any sealer would likely work fine. I use a product called Leak Lock found in hvac supply store. I have used it on everything for my motor builds. let me recommend you try it it is far superior to anything ive found. also, I bought a truck that was neglected, well zero maintenance. after flushing the cooling system one of the core plugs started leaking due to rust. it was a B to change it. a week later, another one, you get the picture. I always use brass now! not saying brass won't corrode, but when you're under the truck with coolant running down your armpit, trying to hammer a metal cup into your block, there's lots of time to cuss and swear to never use the cheap metal plugs. and yes I had to pull the transmission to get those two back there!

24. put a 300 cid inline six in it!

25. you should call it expansion plugs because that is the most search and find friendly term.

26. threaded plug defeat the object of a core plug, they aere designed to be a weak link so that if the block freezes as the water expands it pushes the plugs out instead of cracking the block.

27. I was googling for welch plug r&r but nothing came up. Then I recalled the popular name for this in the U.S. — freeze plug. Googling again for freeze plug and I'm here. Lol.

28. "Put an LS in it."

    THANK YOU, Eric!

    I get tired, too.

    steve

29. I used Permatex Right Stuff when it first come out. That stuff is great…

30. In the future skilled jobs like this will be a thing of the past. There will only be $15 per hour retail and fast food workers who can't get orders right.

31. Oklahoma son

32. 405 boys would smoke these idiots

33. Surprise bitch! (Put loud v8 noises here)

34. If your ever at a stop light and you see an M3, don't even try to race it. Don't embarrass yourself when your Ford breaks down before the next light.

35. They call it block seals in Brazil. Best core plugs instalation video on ze internet!

36. Kevin & Justin know what their doing. Super cool guys!

37. His pinky at 7:55……..

38. You should set it up so that the exhaust cutout automatically opens when you floor it.

39. Come on Eric put an ls in it lmao

40. Should I use steel, or brass plugs? My truck has been leaking antifreeze and I'm going to replace them all, hopefully soon. Can I just use an old 1/2 inch socket with a hammer to push them in place? Also, will the gray rtv from Permatex be ok to seal them. Or should I just stick with the black rtv?

41. can't you just use oil that you are going to use for the core plugs

42. we call them frost plugs in Canada, and we remove them to install block heaters.

43. 3:40 You could say, its been around the block BA DUM TSSS!!

    Ill see myself out.

44. I'm not cool :/

45. boo blue and gold

46. Should've put an LS in it

47. You mean Welsch plugs?

48. Hahaha denied.

49. Never lost a "core plug" – I have had the block heater fall out of a diesel… can't replace with a "core plug" because the opening is tapered. Buying a block heater and living in California – embarrassing 🙁
