I bought a timing hole plug a while back, it has the right part number (021 119 233 A), but it keeps getting blown out of the hole. I can ALMOST just put it right in without having to screw it at all. And the threads on both the plug and the fan shroud look fine. Is there a different part number for the plug on a 76 2.0L?

Actually, now that I look closely at the one in your catalog and the one I have, they both have the same flat spot on the right finger grip as pictured in the AA catalog. So I don't know if it is an original, or if it is a used repro.

I've never seen her this interested in my car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
