drain nut for cooling system?

Post by edhopwood »

Hi there, I'm trying to find the point to drain my 4D mk1 cooling system. Is there a nut on the block somewhere? I haven't found it yet.
Also, I'm after a 50/50 anti-freeze mix, does anyone know the capacity of the cooling system? will 10 Litres of anti-freeze be enough?
many thanks

Ed

Hi Ed

in a E27N or E1A Major ??

If E1A (the next topic down would be better for you) Capacity is 3 galls (UK not US) IIRC about 14 Litres and mine has a block drain tap just under / behind the Dynamo and a Rad drain tap under the RH side looking into the front (take the RH grille out, its easier to see)

HTH and the taps are not seized solid :stress:
