pointless as you have too mix the stuff properly and put it in with the engine running
Reservoirs are just that reservoirs so putting it in there will not mix into the radiator
Radiators from the wreckers that have cars that have been rear ended will be cheaper than new ones
Radiator shops can seal off damaged cores cheaply
the drain "bung" or "spikot" will be located on either the drive or passenger side bottom corner of the radiator. in some cases you need to remove a splash guard or skid plate in order to access it. once you find it you should be able to slip a 3/8th or 1/2 inch hose over the end in order to run it neatly into a container
locate the drain plug usually a plastic butterfly plug on the back side of your radiator but make sure to cool off the coolant first as this could give a serious burn. turn its counterclock wise and bingo drain the water off..
For access to the radiator, firsth you need remove or disconnect the following: Disconnect negative battery cable.
Drain cooling system.
Upper radiator hose .
Upper radiator closure panels.
Radiator fan assembly .
Radiator fan electrical connector.
Raise the vehicle. Locate the drain valve on the engine side of the radiator on the bottom tank on the driverside. The valve will look kinda like a butterfly wings together. Turn it counter clock wise and it will start to drain.
