Hi all, in the middle of a coolant flush but want to verify this is the plug I'm to remove for the engine coolant on the drivers side. I'm following http://www.svtperformance.com/forum...49-03-04-Cobra-Engine-Coolant-Flush-How-To!!! but it is not as described.

Picture is taken of the drivers side of the block. To the left is the front of the engine towards the right is the back of the car. This is an allen bolt instead of what is described in the guide. Any help? Am I looking at the wrong bolt? On a 2003 Cobra.

But just as described in the guide it is exposing a few threads with sealant.

Wow thanks!! Yea from the guide thats the exact bolt I'm looking at.

To confirm for my application, this is the bolt we use to remove for Coolant flushes as well correct?

I can already feel it's going to be a fun bolt to remove. (Already had loads of fun today getting the Crossover tube bolt removed that PO broke 1/4 rachet off into)

Yes, pull that plug to drain that side of the block. Its not bad at all. Apply thread sealant when you re install it.
