You will no doubt have to remive the header/exhaust manifold. After doin that, take a flat screwdriver, place the tip on one edge of the freeze plug and tap with a hammer. The plug should flip. Then pull out with pliers or pry out with the screwdriver.

To install the new one, take a socket that will fit the inside of the freeze plug and drive in evenly. Note how far in the old one is and drive the new one the same amount.
