  1. Draining the cooling system is always done with the engine HOLD.

  2. Remove the reservoir tank cap.

  3. Position the drain pan under the draincock on the bottom of |:he
    radiator. Additionally, some engines have a draincock on the side of {he
    engine block, near the oil filter. This should be opened to aid in draining
    the cooling system completely. If for some reason the radiator draincock
    can't be used, you can loosen and remove the lower radiator hose aiits
    joint to the radiator.


CAUTION

When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are
attracted by the ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely
to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles
on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always
drain the coolant into a scalable container. Coolant should be
reused unless it is contaminated or several years old. Fig. 207 Use a socket and extension to loosen the draincock in
the engine block
