Uhhh. Where is it???

[rama777]

I'm trying to drain my coolant. I've drained from the radiator plug but I'm looking for the drain on the cylinder crankcase apparently. Where can I find this???? Thanks

Did you try searching? IIRC, just last week FI or somebody else posted a pic of the plug.

It's above the starter.

[rama777]

Where is that link? IIRC?

IIRC - If I recall(remember) correctly.......

Still can't find it. Where should I be to see it. Under the car? Does the plug directly face the ground? What size should it be? Thanks

[bgkast]

I think it's a 19 MM

So I can't get to it with my tools....How can I do a good flush without removing this bolt. Their has to be a way...

It's just plastic, use a screw driver and stick it in there and twist it out.

No one in town has a replacement. Sheesh...

You could get a universal radiator drain plug at your local auto parts store.

when i drain the coolant I drain the radiatior, run straight water in it while I drive it around the block, drain that, do it again, drain that then fill to the correct mix.

A universal radiator drain plug eh? Will do!

I just broke the blue plastic plug as well - twisted the head off but threads are still in the radiator. I put a little water in to see if it was going to leak - and it's not. But I know the system isn't pressured either...

I really don't want to waste $20 of coolant - anyone know the thread size (I can't get the thing out either).
