[QUOTE="russ010, post: 98929, member: 677"] cut a piece of cardboard in the shape of the plug and put it in about 1/2" deep... then put you some silicone caulk on top of it as a temporary fix. The cardboard is only put in to stop the silicone and to hold it in place... I've done this temp fix on main drain plugs when mine have either broken or I lost them and needed a quick fix. The caulk can be easily removed later Something else you might can do is put a pipe in it and make sure it goes above the waterline... it should stop filling after it reaches the waterline - I think that's how those work, but maybe others can chime in... you still need to seal around the bottom of it with some silicone or something [/QUOTE]
