M/T Stripped Drain Plug - Welding in place OK?
#2
greetings and welcome.
yes, and the first time ever the plugs are (glued caulked in ( in the factory and after many year, of not touches, is like diamonds.. that glue, only heat works there.
suzuki does still sell the 10mm plugs.

good question, but disconnect the battery neg lug and Plus in that order, before welding on any car. (saVE the electronics...)
then ground the welder to the trans case directly some way.

use mig./tig to weld it in place. and do so for short seconds, let it cool and repeat.
keep it from going red hot. for sure.
the problem is it must come out some way, if the vise grips cant hold it, there is no other way.
cold chisel it CCW. bit by bit?? is all i can think of....

good luck to you and hope it comes out very easy....

if you need the suz p/n on the plug hollar.
