Ok so I guess it is possible that I am as look as dumb I are. I had today set aside to change my termostat and my coolant However, I can not find the block drain plug and only managed to swap out about 1 and a 1/2 gallons. I would appreciate the answers to a few questions.

1. Where is the drain plug - picture would be great

2. Should the vehicle be on ramps prior to draining

3.How much in US gallons should I expect to change after using the drain plug

4. Is the underbody cover needed or is there an easy way to remove it for service

Thank you for your responses

The drain plugs are nearly impossible to get to, they are shown on the Rave if you have one.
Truthfully, I wouldn't loose too much sleep over not getting it all out.

 

If you really want to flush it, just run it for a while and then drain and fill it again..
I filled mine with water and let it go through a few heat cycles, drained and refilled with water and did it again, then I filled with coolant.. Of course I had to adjust for the water in the system to acheive a 50/50 mix, but it was pretty simple math.

 

Do what he said, buy one gallon of full strenght colant and one gallon of the 50/50 premixed.
Dont worry about the block drains.
Depending on if its a DI or DII, DI's take 3 gallons and DII's roughly 2.
