Ok, I just purchased my 170 thermostat from Reische and my car has 79k on her & i know its probably never been cleaned & no telling how badly it might be gunked up in there.
I know i can take it to a dealer but don't want to so please nobody tell me to take it to the dealership
I'm going to use Prestone's Coolant Flush 1st to brak that crap up but i can't really decide how i want to go about the rest of the way.
I had a few ideas:
The 1st being i was gonna unsrew the drain plugs on the block but i have NO idea where they are located
2nd) I read from one member on here told a guy to remove the Tstat then jack the rear of the car in the air to drain the coolant out
3rd) Drain the system by leaving the Tstat out & with a garden hose pluged into the crossover & car running watch it flush itself out until clear. But now you have a problem with all the garden hose water in the block (which i don't want) So this would be a good time to know where the drain plugs on the block are to get rid of that water
4) The Prestone flush kit: But then you have the same problem with garden hose water in the block.
What do you guys think?? Can someone direct me wher those drain plugs on the block are?
