I used 1/4 cup into each cylinder on the Volvo. And, it cured the wispy gary smoke I had been having all of the time.

I did a image google search for a pic of the test plugs and they also showed a rubber pipe Cap with a Clamp. That made me thing of other things I have seen.
I have seen People use the Stock Radiator hoses and cut a piece of cylindrical Wood and stuff that into the Radiator Hose and clamp it. Liquid eventuall seeps through the Wood but it is good enough for a temp testing.

The small Pipe End Test Plugs usually just have a Wing Nut to expand them.
