Bongo Fury

Certainly won't hurt, may shave a bit of time & cut down on thermal stresses maybe?

Thats a dead ringer for the workshop manual diagram. Can that be seen and/or accessed/removed without removing the engine under cover, do you know Mike?

I must admit to taking a look see..... sometime ago....as you can see Mike the scavenger fan can be seen in the picture so in essence it is covered by the under tray... which is probably why this drain "noozle" as called by a certain BigDaddyCain, is never mentioned in most of the coolant change threads and bleed methods....

And also turn the Bongo upside down to evacuate any trapped air before refitting the pipe plug.

I wonder if others may now 'come out' and admit they didn't remove their noozle before draining their coolant.

Thanks for all your posts and esp the pic. Have put it off this weekend due to the poor weather but tomorrow looking hopefull. Now loaded with more antifreeze and an extended garden hose. Cheers again . Reebs
