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.

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.
