Does b18a1 DA9 have radiator drain plug

open the heater valve
remove the thermostat,reattach hose.
remove the top rad hose from rad,point it at one of your unsuspecting mates
then turn the motor on & pour new coolant in the bottom hose as fast as it'll drink it.
when ur mate is covered in about 2 litres of dirty coolant,switch off the motor.

nah,dont listen to me,i just remove the drain bolt......
easy when u got the right tool

I wasnt being smart by the way.. Im just trying to get my head around all the different methods.. and of the easiest / safe method

I appreciate everyone's help

if u dont want to jack the passenger side of your car up 90deg,u gotta remove the drain bolt(just next to the engine number btw) & has crush washer not an o-ring,use some sealant on the thread as well.

strings right its a bitch to get loose,u need like a lever socket arrangement that u can hammer on.

i think u'll find most people dont even bother draining the block,even the shops,the shops prob just flush new coolant thru the block,if at all....
