Freiberger's miss-statement
On S8v7 Freiberger stated that an engine block plug is mistakenly referred to as a freeze plug and that nowhere in the history of mankind has an engine block froze without the block also cracking. I am proof that this statement is WRONG!
In 1977 the engine block froze on my 1970 Toyota FJ40 and I found that the freeze plug on the driver's side was pushed out. After thawing the block and inserting a new freeze plug, Being cautious about my vehicle, I checked the freeze plugs on each side of the block for leaks as well as all over the engine block constantly for two years with no leaks detected and no antifreeze in the oil either. I drove this FJ40 for 15 years with nary another problem. I'd be happy to discuss this further with Mr. Freiberger if he is interested.
