Gutted my ebpv, the plate and its shaft are removed. I tried to install the 20 mm freeze plug but it won't go in!!!! I tried tapping it in carefulley and that didn't work so I beat the you know what out of it and no luck. My truck is a 1995. Do some of them take different sizes?
Thanks,
Richard

Thanks for the help. I'll try a 19mm and if that does not work I try a 3/4 inch, and will post what worked.

I threaded the hole with a pipe tap and put in a 3/8NPT pipe plug as I recall...

thats what I did and in doing so I discovered there is a bushing in the bottom that has to come out. this might be what is causing it to not go in.
