• Plug corroded, pitted or bulging
• Plug pushed proud or loose in its bore
• Staining or a salt trail below the plug

🛠️ Service Notes

• The number it replaces, 3580281, was listed only as a plug, so an older parts list may not look like a match
• Expansion plugs 3583579 at 0.0068 kg and 3583697 at 0.032 kg are the others in this range, and bore diameter decides, so order by number
• Clean the bore before fitting; a plug driven into a corroded bore will weep again
