ANOTHER PLUG FOR PLUG REMOVAL
I’ve found that those stubborn press in galley plugs can usually be removed fairly easily with this process. First, and most importantly, you must center punch the plug as close to center as possible.Then, using a Unibit, drill through the plug. Next using a carbide burr and die grinder, grind one side as close to the block as possible without breaking through. You don’t want to grind into the block casting. Finally using a hooked style tool, pop it right out.
