Bore Plugs
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

After years of coolant neglect, this truck's bore plugs had rusted away, and several had been replaced badly with rubber expanding plugs. Then the coolant continued to be neglected, until it was undriveable, and some of the bores were permanently damaged. So to repair them correctly, the engine was cleaned, pulled, & cleaned again. The bores that were badly eroded got new plugs with JBWeld instead of Hylomar.
