Re: freeze plugs (groovyvette85)
There are 8 altogether. Two on each side, two in the front, and two
in the back. I read your other post. Don't get too bent out of shape on
this. It could be that one is rusting through but that is unlikely. It's more
likely that coolant is (or has) seeped between the plug and block and
it will never do more than that. I know this doesn't sound "proper", but
it is amazing what some stop leak in the radiator will do for the right kind
of leak like this.

I don't remember. But FYI, there are 2 or 3 at the back of the block, by the trans.
Your in big trouble if they are leaking. Must remove the trans. Been there done that. Really sucks.
