Changing antifreeze
 

I need to change my anti-freeze and the owner's manual says to "remove the drain bolt from the cylinder block". Where is this located? How much anti-freeze will I leave in if I don't remove the drain bolt? I have a '99 CRV.

Drain bolt located by the Engine Id number.

Thanks for the suggestion, but you're not talking to an expert mechanic here. I don't know where the engine id is located. How much anit-freeze will drain out after removing this bolt?

that's the one. Make sure it's cool, because you'll burn your hands as that stuff comes gushing out.

Great pic ALF, thanks, even I can find that. How much anti-freeze will drain out of the engine when I remove the drain bolt?
