It sounds to me

that you are over caffienated.

Did it come out without binding? Are the threads on the plastic plug in good shape?

I have used a brass pipe plug in a pinch.

drain plug

Hi all
i got my drain plug back in my radiator last night, i put a new one in and it went right in, could this little nick in the drain plug threads have kept it from screwing in?
