Bringing the question back again... I'm getting close to doing a coolant change. I was just underneath the car this weekend, it's damn close... Is there any other way to drain the block (or pump out the coolant)?

Thanks.

u dont use those plugs, take the bottom coolant hose off and it will drain most of the block.
