TM 5-5430-210-10 c. Emergency Repairs with Wooden Plugs. (1) In  emergencies,  as  an  immediate  tempo- rary  measure,  the  furnished  wooden  plugs  may  be used  for  expedient  sealing  of  small  holes  or  punc- tures, (fig. 3-2) (2) Select the size plug needed to fit (seal) the tank  puncture,  insert  in  the  hole  and  twist  clock- wise until the fit becomes quite snug and the tank leak is either stopped or slowed to the greatest pos- sible degree. Follow-up regular inspection should be made  of  the  insert  plugs,  as  possilbe  tightening  of the  plugs  may  be  necessary  if  the  leaks  resume.  Lat- er, if a leak is not totally stopped, the use of a small repair clamp may become necessary. (3) The size of hole or tear will determine the size of wood plug to be used. (a) For holes (tears) up to approximately 1/ 2  inch  (1.27  centimeters)  in  size,  use  the  3-inch (7.62 centimeters) long plug. (b) For holes (tears) up to approximately 1 1/2  inch  (3.81  centimeters)  in  size,  use  the  5-inch (12.7 centimeters) long plug. Figure   3-2. Installation  of  wood  Plug. 3-12
