Just wondering if it's the same location as an archived post detailed.

Up and to the left of the oil filter. My helms manual shows it left and to the bottom of the oil filter but there's no bolt there. If it's above that little ledge, how does the coolant effectively 'drain'?

Thanks!

ps. are the coolant and oil drain bolt washers the same?

 

no I do not believe the washers are the same, not real sure where the plug is located
the pic I lloked at has it over next to the oil filter and being a 12 mm bolt with a 28 mm sealing washer

 

look for the winged white plastic plug

 

I believe he istrying to drain the fluid from the block as well

 

opps

 

thats the one. thats interesting becuse my helms does show it in the correct position, but the pic is a little bit hard to see.

I guess the idea is that it will drain most of the coolant outta the block. It would be pretty hard to get all of it out
