I was getting ready to drain the anti freeze and flush system. I turned the drain plug about 1/2 to 3/4 turn and it fell out. Its not broken or anything but I cant seem to get it back in. Is there a trick to getting it back in. Thank you

Some plugs have a sort of anchor attached to the water side and tabs inside to prevent them from dropping out. If that's the obstruction, you may need to jiggle it a bit as you insert it. If the problem is that the O-ring on the edge is holding it out from threading, a little firm pressure as you turn it should help. It may help to hold the tab sticking down with a pair of vice grips for better purchase.
