Hi...

Yesterday I wanted to change coolant on my newly bought D16Z6..

I unscrrew the radiator drain plug and only about 2 qt of coolant came out of the radiator... and that's odd because the system was full... so I poored the distilled water in and it only took 2 qt...

So I guess I DIDN'T COMPLETELY DRAIN the coolant...

So today I'm going to do it again properly and I was wondering if anyone knows WHERE IS THE BLOCK DRAIN BOLT ON D16Z6... I searched but found nothing...

Is it on the back of the engine near to the oil filter like on D16Y7 engine or is it placed somewhere else???

Please help me cos in about 2 hours I'm going to the garage so it would be great if I get an answer before I start...

 

front of block, below the exhaust manifold flange on the tranny side.

big (maybe 19mm) bolt with integrated washer.

 

Thank you... I found it...

This time, almost 4qt of fluid drained from the system

Drained the system, flushed the radiator and block and everything is like it should be now...
