Radiator drain plug location 96 chevy 1500

Have a look underneath and on the back side of the bottom radiator tank

Should b on lower pass.side of radiator...some don't have the plastic petcock drain tho

The drain plug should be ner the bottom of the radiator, either on the side or directly on the bottom. It should be a plug about 1/2 inch diameter and usually can be taken off with a screwdriver, but you may need a socket.

Unless you are prepared to clean up a mess you might want to get a small funnel with a tube so you can direct where it goes when it drains.

It is at the bottom driver side corner an inch or two up. It is plastic and hard to open. Can be stripped very easy. I just replaced my radiator with an all aluminum unit from BeCool because of this. Will never use another plastic radiator again if I can help it!

It's located on the drivers side of the radiator opposite of the lower radiator hose. Note: you may be better off disconnecting the lower radiator hose, it's common for the drain plug to break or the O-rings to split causing more work to drain the radiator. That's why most tech's will drain the radiator from the lower radiator hose, less chance of breaking the radiator drain plug and most new cars now don't come with a drain plug to the radiator.

The drain plug is located on the bottom of the radiator.

Most drain plug ismake of inexpensive nylon/plastic and it may fall apart while you turn it.

The professional method is to loosen the lower radiator clamp and drop to lower radiator hose.

Drain the coolant onto a large drain pan and recycle the coolant.

HI. The drain **** is located on the lower right or left end section of the radiator. On the diagram below, it is labeled as number 8.

the drain plug will have seals on it, just replace the drain plug. any parts store will have a drain plug/seal
