You can find one at your FLAPS too.

FLAPS?

I have a picture of the hole underneath the drain plug. Does it look broken? The source of the coolant is definitely from the drain. The plug is in position as far as I can see.

Going to get a new plug from my FLAPS tomorrow.

Thanks for the comments.

Is it a clockwise quarter turn or counter clockwise turn to remove the plug? I have read conflicting answers on this site.

Good night.

Hey all.
Replaced the drain plug on the radiator. Seems to have done the trick.

Here is a pic of the old plug.

Hey all. I replaced the drain plug, leak fixed. I guess I got lucky.

Here is a pic of the old plug. You can see where the seal was broken.

Thanks for all of the help.

This episode will no doubt enhance the Aleromod Kharma.

Well done, Citizen.

Looks like all you really needed was an O ring, not the whole plug.
