[s-cars] Coolant R+R

[CLAG500 at aol.com]

Ed,

   My '93 has a spout and a blue knob on the lower passenger side of the radiator. You can stick a screwdriver in the end of the blue knob to break it loose. Also get a piece of hose to attatch to the spout and you can drain it right into a bottle. Very neat except the Bentley says to remove the t-stat housing to drain the block which is not very neat at all.
   Check your after run coolant pump. You may want to change it if it's old. Mine crumbled like a month-old dog turd when I tried to get the hose off to replace it.
