dumb question......

Ok, I was going to drain my antifreeze, flush the system and put in dexcool but I can't seem to find the drain plug on the radiator. I heard it was at the bottom right of the radiator. But I sure as heck can't find it. But I guess it would probably help if I knew what it looked like. I looked in my haynes manual and it doesn't tell where it is or ANYTHING! So should I just undo the lower radiator hose and drain and flush from there? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Go out to K-Mart, or a local car store and get one of those 5-dollar flush kits... they work wonders... flush your entire system -very- well and make it nice and simple...

To drain everything... disconnect the lower radiator hose, that should work satisfactorly enough.

That is correct on the plug bottom right side (passenger side) facing in towards the engine (I say this b/c I know of a guy that thought it was on the outer side of the raditor.)
