Knock the old one out and tap a new one in place. Lightly sand the hole to remove any rust, place the plug in the hole and tap in. Use a socket that fits in the inside of the plug and hit it with a hammer. There are also replacement freeze plugs that you put in the hole and tighten a bolt on the surface to expand it until it is tight in the hole.
