Cannot find coolant drain plug

There should be a petcock(drain valve) on the bottom corner of the radiator. Turn it counterclockwise till coolant starts draining. Have a drain pan under the valve.

I am assuming you are asking how to remove your antifreeze. When the engine is COLD- be sure this is true- otherwise it is very dangerous. When the engine is cold, open the radiator cap. Underneath the radiator, closest to the ground, there is a plug that simply unscrews and lets the coolant drain out. Be sure you have something under the drain to catch the coolant, there can be a lot in there sometimes. Also, it's a good idea to run a few gallons of water through after it drains to be sure and get all the old coolant out. Close the plug, and refill with coolant/water mix (50/50).

Hope this helps!

will be around battery harness or through lower grill driverside here is install instructions hope this helps you find it the car never came with a block heater if you have one it was installed aftermarket let me know if you need any more help

Removal & Installation

Factory block heaters are not installed on these models. If an aftermarket heater has been installed the following procedure will most likely work. There are two basic types, one for the oil and one for the coolant. The oil heater usually just slips into the dipstick tube or replaces the oil drain plug. The following procedure is for the coolant type.

1. Remove the negative battery cable.
   
2. Drain the cooling system.
   

CAUTION

When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted by ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always drain the coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or several years old.

1. Remove the block heater in the same way as the freeze plugs. Some heater units have a bolt that must be loosened or a V-Clamp that must be removed to remove the heating element.
   
2. Disconnect the heater connector and remove the heater element.
   

To install:

1. Coat the new heater with sealant, then install the reverse order of removal.
   
2. Fill the engine with coolant, connect the battery cable. Start engine and check for leaks
   

try by changing the thermostat. if it sticks closed, coolant will be deverted to buy pass hose will not heat up. have a good one !

Drain some coolant from radiator to below level of thermostat housing. Be careful to keep pets away as coolant is very sweet smelling and poison. Remove two bolts holding thermostat housing in place and use catch pan to catch fluid. Clean all gasket material from both sides of housing. Clean threads of bolts and use gasket shellac on them and new gasket. Install thermostat same as old one was, install new gasket, tighten bolts to correct torque value as found in your handy dandy shop manual. Refill radiator and check for leaks.

two things you can do to change the coolant
1.cool off engine
2. remove the lower radiator hose if you can and have the tool or find the drain plug on the rear down side of your radiator facing the fan, loosen the plug and drain the coolant. do not mix coolant of different colors...

This should not be a big deal. You can try a syphon tube but DO NOT SWALLOW ANY COOLANT. Or use a large turkey baster to **** up up coolant. It takes awhile though.
The car is fine to drive.

Drivers side of radiator lower or remove lower hose.

hi, i dont know about the dipstick, but your overheating problem is most likely to be the thermostat...sounds like its stuck in the closed position,not allowing colder water to circulate, hence the overheating.......needs changing

take the skid plate down and there should be a drain plug on the bottom of your radiator or just pull bottom hose once drained start the car for just a few seconds no more to get all the old stuff out put plug back in or reatach hose then fill make sure to (burp the system) make sure air pockets are out check by leaving cap off and squezing the top hose
