if you have had antifreeze in the motor, there is no need to replace all of them. you can buy a new freeze plug at Auto Zone and poke it in the hole. get a socket that just fits inside the plug and use it as a driver. they normally pound in flush, or aginst a step. Just for curosity sake, why did it pop out? freeze?

You may find more problems beyond the freeze plug that popped out. Dan.
