Hi,

just try to a coolant flush today to my TE, however, couldn't find the drain plug for that.

does anyone know what is it??

or do i have to remove the hose in order to drain the coolant?

Thanks :D

On the driver's side of the radiator, the is a turning level like a small tap at the bottom. place your bucket underneath that area and start turning it to loosen it. It will all be out as it gets looser.

Found it, thanks :D

Aren't you meant to drain from the engine drain plugs too?

Found it, thanks :D
You also need to locale two plug from engine block - front and rear - otherwise you will not bw ablw to do proper flashing.

I hope you're using a radiator flush product, and using a coolant with at least 33 percent mixture ratio (either mixing yourself with rainwater or premix). The chemical flushes are the only real way to remove crud and rust from the radiator, I've heart people complain that they've used high pressure 6 months ago and now its dirty again.

Also the 33 percent mixture ratio is the minimum ratio, but upwards to 50 percent is better. This is for best effectiveness, and of course if you need to top up the radiator don't use water use a premix of say 33 percent or whatever for it (otherwise you're diluting what you already have). If you flush the engine with a chemical flush (then run clean water through it), then using a good premix (like Tectaloy 100 Plus) you won't have to change it for 4 years, which is the recommended time span for that coolant. I'm using Tectaloy 90 plus which is a 2 yr lifespan. A lot of coolants are only weak premixes that don't have anti corrosion protection in them, and may need changing every year, so the Tectaloy 90 or 100 plus or equivalent is the best bet, or mix a good coolant at say a 40 percent mix.

I'm saying this for the benefit of anyone reading :)
