Must change the other plugs now. The one that failed had rusted through.
Some time ago I read the information that the core plug holes were only there to let the sand out at casting stage. Thus if there is a leak just use JB weld to cover over.....no more rust!........did this on very inaccessible back of my Scimitar V6 block that would have otherwise meant engine out.
