Default Bleed Bolt

Now that I think of it, anyone else with a D16Z6 know if there is a bleed bolt on the engine?

My manual says it's located right beside the heat shield but I looked around, even removed the shield, and nothing.

Most of the fluid would drain from the draincock but not all, of course. I considered just removing my thermoswitch but I don't think you can reuse those o-rings.
Because of this and the horrific condition of the fluid (supper dark, looked at least 10yrs. old) I ended up flushing the rad. a good 10 times

I started it Saturday and finished Sunday morning before work :chuckles:
