Tom,
The block is still full. There is a drain valve on the side of the
block, I think it is on the starter side, just in front and above the
starter. That is where it is located on the 1600, so I assume it is in
the same place on the 2L. Drain the block and you will get the rest of
the coolant.
Cooling system capacity on a 2000 is 2.245 gallons, or just shy of 9
quarts according to 311s.org.
Peace,
Pat
