Hey yall.
Trying to remove the freeze plug on my M1009 so I can install a Kats heater, but it wont budge. Already accidentally punctured the inner circle (nothing's fallen inside, just bent), so I've been trying to pound at the lip or outer ring of the plug with a punch and hammer, but still nothing. Even tried heating it up with a blow torch first. Considering trying to cut that split that outer ring with a dremmel tool, but A) I'm nervous about damaging the housing and B) Its probably not even worth it cuz i feel like its just fused together.
On the pic you can see how my punch is almost starting to damage the edge of the housing hole. Very frustrated. Please help! thank you!!
