Freeze plugs

[IDave]

Now that I have new OEMs from Dan:

What is the best way to knock the old ones out? (bent, leaky)

And the new ones go in concave face out, correct?

IDave,
I have just smacked a flat blade screwdriver with a hammer right in the center of the freeze plug, that pushes the center in and pulls the sides in a little, then wiggle(the screwdriver, not your ass) and pry and it should come out.

Center punch. Got it. Thanks Edwardo.

Concave in or out?

just beat them in and pry them out.
