There is a coolant DRAIN PLUG located in the middle of the left engine mount attach point area. It's 14mm wrench size. Square plug.

If you're going to be flushing out your system, drain what's in the block (with this plug) also. No point in putting new coolant in if there's still old crappy coolant in there.

You talking about one of the freeze plugs, tonyge? On the rear side housing? Cool, we can get another 33-page mini-series going on freeze plug changes, lol...

Coolant pouring out of the tranny bellhousing area?
