Do I need to drain the block and hoses if I'm using one of those coolant

since it is sucking in the Anti Freeze and will displace any water left
in the block. Thanks in advance. David


what I do is after my motors are warmed I pull the plugs to drain the water
and any sediment that you have sucked up. then reinstall the plugs and suck
up 5 gal of the pink stuff and fogg then go the extra mile and pull the
plugs to drain the pink stuff. I have done this for 8 years in northern Iowa
with no problems.
