<div style="font-size: 10pt;"><div dir="auto">Hello everyone,</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">The car I will be working on is a 1974 B with an 18GK engine. It uses one of those metal junctions that attaches a short hose tobthe water pump, lower radiator hose, and hose to the heater core. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I will be replacing the radiator, radiator cap, all hoses, and putting in a 180 (or 185deg) thermostat. All the parts are coming from Vicky Brit. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Unfortunately, I found out the hard way that the yellow so-called universal coolant doesn't work well with brass and copper radiators, which is why I'm doing this work. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">My engine has a coolant drain plug near the oil gauge takeoff near the back of the engine. However, I have never been able to get anything to drain out of it. I'm willing to have another go at it, but not expecting much. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">So, how do I get all the old coolant out of the engine since the coolant drain plug isn't functional, and since there will likely be water left inside the block, how do I properly dilute the green coolant?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Thank you,</div><div dir="auto">-William</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div id="LGEmailSignatureBox" dir="auto"><div dir="auto" font-size:9pt;"=""><i>Sent from my LG Mobile</i></div></div></div>
