Theres also a plastic phillups screw,drain plug on bottom of radiator which is easier to get a bucket under, so u dont make a mess!



( while it wont completly drain the block, it will drain it lower than than the water pump housing, so it works for this)

yes that would be a good idea to drain the radiator first but that does not drain the block
