A question on the Super A we got a couple of weeks ago: As I reported earlier, the engine was full of water--which was drained and replaced with diesel fuel for now. Radiator was still full of water, so I'm hoping the block is OK with no cracks.

I can turn it about 1/4 turn back and forth. Soaking the threads with penetrating oil for now, don't want to break anything. The #4 plug took a 7/8" socket and the other 3 took the standard 13/16". I was wondering if maybe the #4 might have a thread insert or something?? Any suggestions? Should I wait a couple of days before I use brute force to remove the plug and will nothing get hurt anyway?
