[Chrysler300] Freeze out plug

[Mark Souders <MRS954@xxxxxxx>]

This morning I was driving my 300H and three miles from the house, I pulled out from a traffic light, and something went POP. Then there was a white cloud of smoke coming from under the car. I pulled off the highway, opened the hood and found that a freeze out plug removed itself from the left head. With the help of a few gallons of water, I nursed it back home. Now I need to know what size plug goes into that hole, what kind to get, and how do I install it so that it won't escape again? The FSM is very evasive about this subject. This plug has been in the head for 8 years and 13,000 miles, not rusted out, the whole plug is gone, and the paint is chipped off the upper control arm. I'm glad it didn't happen a few hundred miles earlier, when I was in Myrtle Beach!

Thanks for the help,

Mark Souders
