Core plugs - where from?

Post by sciroccotune »

Hi guys,

One of my core plugs sprang a leak today (typical during mot prep!!) but luckily its one I can easily get to.

I need a replacement but I was unable to get one from the normal places like Euro Car Parts or GSF so where can I get them??

I thought that I had seen them on Brickwerks but cant find them now..

Van is a 1.6d westy.

Thanks guys!

Any places that do engine rebuilds, as in crank grinds and rebores etc.
