While using my boat recently there was a large backfire and I found out that the spark plug had blown out of the core plug and had ruined the threads so that the spark plug cannot be replaced into the cylinder head. In going thru the parts list for a cylinder head, I found part#306392 Core Plug. Is this a good fix for me so I can replace the spark plug and get the motor running again?:confused:
 
No. The core plug closes off the bottom of thermostat housing. The spark plug hole can be repaired with an helicoil insert or replaced with another head.
