My 92 Honda Accord will need to sit in freezing temperatures for over a week until I can have the opportunity to have some repairs made to get it running again (distributor problem, will not start/run). Right now it has no coolant in the engine, only straight water. I'm concerned about the water in the block freezing and need to know if there's possibly a way to drain it all out. Hopefully there is an accessible plug on the block I can unscrew? Any help/comments appreciated. Thanks

 

Look on the back side of the engine - engine to firewall - to the left drivers side of the oil filter for a drain bolt.

 

learn something new evey day

what i did to flush all the distalled water and get perfect fill of premixed honda blue was to turn the heater full hot. pull off the lower heater hose at the valve and blow air into the radiator fill with a leaf blower

go ahead and laugh, but a shitload of water came out.
at least then you could fill it with cheap premix if you wanted to.

idk if you would wanna leave it out empty because any traces of water can still freeze, it just depends on how paranoid you are i guess
(since you cant run the motor to mix straight water w/ straight coolant)

hope this helps!

 

Great. Thank you for that description and diagram.
