Remember the old Century with the rotted out engine plug that was ****ing
water out the side of the engine? For those people not familiar with this
story, it wasn't a "freeze" plug. It was a heavy, threaded plug in the side
wall of the raw water cooled (GM) 350 engine that rotted away over time.
I noticed it after starting the engine and saw a healthy stream of water
coming out of the side of the engine.


I also had that happen to the 350 in my old runabout. It was right
underneath the exhaust manifold on the port side and a real bear to
replace.
