Hey guys!!! Everything Ok??
Well.. the thing here is the following... I´m in proccess to replace my (still factory original ) water pump and as i´m on the cooling system i´m adding a thermostat, replacing the radiator hoses (the lower one is still original too... i´m amazed!!) and also, i´ve cleaned the hole water circuit with some 10 mitute circulation product before i took everything off...
As i´m on that i wanted to replace ALL the cooling liquid from the engine and i just couldn´t find any engine drain plug on the block...
Í managed to "clean" the better i could inside the circuit by conecting an external water sourse directly into the pump and facing the upper hose to the floor with my car in Idle for some minutes but i´m still wondering if there´s any way to just empty the hole water that is still in the engine and replacing with a good quality coolant to do this the best i can...
Well.. As you know, my car is a little 250 I6 so.. if yu guys know about a drain, great!... but where is it??
If the engine doesn´t have one, which is the best way to clean the inside from what i´m now?
THANKS!!
