So i'm putting everything back together today and i overtorque my drain plug screw. It's plastic and it cracked off and now the threaded part is stuck in the bottom of my radiator. It's a koyo, am i going to have to special order a part? And where can i get a replacement.

if you can get the threaded piece out then you can replace it with any drain plug from these radiators



theyre all the same

All radiators have the same sized drain plugs?

not sure if its the same as the Koyo or not, but you can get

a drainplug in a good auto parts store



the broken piece should be easy to get out.

in the future put it in hand tight, then give it like a 1/4-1/2 turn, no

need for anything more.
