Hi,
I've bought a new radiator and it has plugs in the end with a cross-shaped end. I need to remove these to fit the tails. What do I use to remove these plugs? A standard radiator spanner won't fit!
Thanks.

Have you tried a coin - 2p should be about the right size?
Failing that, a large cross-head screwdriver - or almost any odd-shaped bit of metal lying around in your workshop - they're not in very tight!
Yes, they're only really held in by the paint. I use my largest, ordinary flat-blade screwdriver
