Detailed Description

Pioneer Cables PE-170-R is an engine expansion plug kit made for cylinder block applications that require a durable sealing solution. The steel design uses cold rolled, fine-grained material with zinc plating to help resist corrosion in demanding engine environments. This part is listed for 1979-1982 Ford Courier models, making it a direct-fit service option for rebuilders and technicians working on those vehicles. PE-170-R is also a practical reference number when matching engine block components during teardown and reassembly.

What It Helps Address

• Leaking or deteriorated engine block expansion plugs
• Corrosion at the plug surface or sealing edge
• Service needs during engine rebuilds
• Replacement of worn cylinder block sealing components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify block opening size and seating surface condition before installation. Clean the bore thoroughly, inspect for pitting or distortion, and install the plug squarely to ensure an even seal. Confirm application details against the vehicle and engine configuration before service. PE-170-R should be matched to the listed Ford Courier fitment only.

Quality Assurance

Pioneer offers expansion plugs in multiple material types, including steel, stainless steel, brass, and threaded designs, to meet different engine service requirements. PE-170-R follows that product approach with a zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance and rebuild-focused durability.
