Even though pipe thread should not need Teflon tape on its threads I would drain the rad and put some on the plug and see what the out come is.

I used Permatex liquid teflon thread sealant on the steel plug when I installed it. Unfortunately the rad support covers the plug so I can't get a good look at it.
The posts about different materials make sense. I managed to get an allen key into the plug and got another 1/3 turn so will see what happens.
Thanks everyone.
