Wanted: image of rear of AMC 360 showing freeze plugs (coolant leak)
Does anyone know of an online image showing the rear of the AMC
360 block showing the location of the freeze plugs? I have a project Grand Wagoneer that runs smoothly, but spews coolant from the rear of the engine just above the oil pan. I believe it's most likely that a freeze plug has rusted through. The leak is so severe that the radiator can't be filled. Before I decide whether it would be easier to raise the engine or drop the transmission to access the source of the leak it would be helpful to be able to visualize the area in question. Thoughts or other suggestions would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Frank |

If you cannpt see up in there you can feel up there. You should be able to see up in there fine if you just get under it with a light. I put a block heater in a AMC 360 in a Jeep truck many years ago (you remove a freeze plug) and I did not have to raise engine up to do it. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com |

With extreme jealous ranting over my documents, possessions, successes, manliness and fine, Southern California surfing body, beard, and loving Christian family. Committing forgery over many of my posts, proving I'm a responsible American man. You remind me of a little rat dog, like a Mexican Chiwawa with its senseless barking, me too, me too.
