how to drain coolant reservoir ??
I searched for this and still couldn't find anything....
I have drained the engine block and the rad is draining still... I was wondering if you have to take the res off or if you just let it drain through the rad ?
I have been running mostly water because it eats coolant but since it is getting cold I decided to drain/flush and start using coolant.

If you have been running straight water, you can kiss your heater core goodbye this winter. Once, on a different car, I had a radiator leak and I was lazy and just put water into it. It rusted my heater core from the inside out.
