JuicedLS1 is stuck in White Springs, FL.

Apparently, during a high speed pull he lost the driver side freeze plug out of his GTO, which he just bought from me this afternoon (running perfectly).

Apparently, there are no parts stores in his immediate vicinity. He needs either a expandable freeze plug (you can get these at any parts store) or a standard freeze plug for the driver side head and a hammer/some help.

Is anyone close by that can help him? His # is 479-970-8227

I am headed in the opposite direction with my wife and 2 kids...and he needs to get home to Arkansas. Can anyone help him???

Thanks!

Damn that sucks. If I were any where near there I would be glad to help but I am not. Hope all goes well and he gets on his way.

2Camaros, thanks. Anyone that can help??

All, he is getting the parts, taking a cab to Live Oak and will probably just need a helping hand getting it done. I am several hundred miles away, or I would drive there myself!!!

OK, the guys have the freeze plug and are in the process of getting it back on the car. They were filming, and the car hit 19psi on pump gas in 4th gear at WOT. Might be a little excessive for 93 octane. He has the instruction manual for the eBoost2 (all 38 pages) and is going to check and make sure it is on the 11.8psi setting it was on.

Thank God he has a couple buddies with him.


EDIT: looks like they got it fixed, thank God. They should be on their way home soon.

We got it! Car did great all the way home! No more full throttle blasts till i get the boost back down wheres its supposed to be... It was a real pain to get the freeze plug back in on the back side of the head but i got it! I guess being a full time mechanic helped out there LOL!
