A week ago I checked a couple of things on the car. When I looked under the engine I noticed a bolt between knock sensor and freeze plug that I hadn't heard of before. Can anyone tell me for what the hole was drilled and then closed? Would it be possible to install an oil pressure sensor there?

I believe that bolt is the block drain for the coolant system. When you flush the system, you remove that to totally clear the block. I think i still have my temp sensor for ms fitted in there.

Interesting, I always wondered how to properly flush the coolant circuit without opening the block, haha. Thanks for your quick answer.

I have wondered this as well for quite some time but was sure I'd find the info somewhere so I never asked. Mystery solved.
