Draining radiator

Posted By: No_snow On: 01-30-2009 @ 22:52:39         Reply | Edit
Need to replace my low coolant sensor. Im looking
to drain the radiator to below the hole the sensor goes in. I dont see a petcock valve on the rad. to drain it. Is there a way to do it without pulling the lower hose?

I see the valve in question. The good news is that I unplugged the sensor and scraped the terminal ends. Seems to work ok now. Didnt actually any corosion on the end though.
