Radiator Flush Help-
I have a 2000 Grand Am SE V6 and it's been leaking coolant for the past few months. I checked the oil and it's fine (no coolant in it)
My question is, can you flush the radiator yourself? And is there a drain plug somewhere? My husband insists that it has to be taken to the shop to do this and there is no drain plug..... Thank you in advance! |

Re: Radiator Flush Help-
Welcome to AF.
Thier is a drain though usually they are stuck and can break trying to open. On the drivers side of the radiator, bottom corner a white round piece with a square hole in it. A 1/4" drive will open it. If yours doesnt have that square hole it could have a wingnut looking part, these like to break ![]() It drains straight out the bottom ![]()

Re: Radiator Flush Help-
Dang, so he probably can't do it! He would probably break it.....
