Stuck rad drain plug!

thanx... i'm sure shipping would be a bitch to Canada though. I bought the car from a dealership in Texas. Fuckers put on a low pressure rad cap, and grounded out the low coolant sensor. I assume they threw in some stock leak to minimize the leakdown as well. I put the proper cap on, and when it built pressure, it promptly started spitting coolant out the tailpipe, and frothing the coolant / barfing it out of the overflow tank. I'm not impressed.

Debating whether or not litigation is in order. I should have seen an imminent rebuild coming though with 66k miles on the original engine. Wishful thinking had the rebuild happening next year, not right away.
