During a recent cold snap the back freeze plug (behind the exhaust pipe)
got pushed out of the yellow peril's block. I thought it was protected to
colder than it actually got, and in fact there is still a puddle of antifreeze
on the driveway under it. The freeze plug is marked "45mm" and I am wondering
if it was the correct size. A quick calculation shows that 1 25/32" is about
ten thousandths bigger. Since most things on the 6-bolt B20 and B30 are
inch sizes.....
Anybody know for sure on this? (So far haven't checked to see if 1 25/32"
is even manufactured.)
